Atlanta - Where town and country come together
The smallest of Phelps County’s five communities has a venerable history. During World War II, Atlanta gained distinction as one of just a handful of prisoner of war camps on American soil. The Atlanta POW Camp opened in July 1943 and was deactivated and closed in 1946. During its operation, hundreds of German and Italian soldiers were interned there and the silo-shaped concrete water tower of the camp is still a familiar landmark of Phelps County.
What you don’t see, boosters say, are the 50 or so thriving home-based businesses in the Atlanta area, and what you may not appreciate is the spirit of the 130 residents who call Atlanta home. It’s a small town with a really big spirit. If you’re looking for the perfect blend of town and country, Atlanta may be just the place for you.
