More About Winnona Park

Originally farms and estates, Winnona Park appeared in the 1800s and was named after the Winn family, particularly James J. Winn, a clergyman. The original house can still be found on South Columbia Drive, a farmhouse built in 1868, known as the Avary-Fulton House.

The business district at East College and South Candler was built in the early 1900s and included a drug store and a train depot, as well as a school. Winnona Park contains three churches, All Souls Fellowship, Columbia Presbyterian Church, and Julie Thompson Smith Chapel, part of Agnes Scott College.

There is one park in the neighborhood, Dearborn Park, a seven-acre park with sports courts, a playground, picnic area, and trail.
