Leesburg is a small town of about 1,000 people in northeast Alabama's Cherokee County, sitting in the rolling foothills about 20 miles from Rome, Georgia. Visitors typically arrive via Alabama State Route 9, which connects to Centre and continues toward Gadsden, or from Rome using US-27 south to Route 9 west. The area features gentle hills with mixed forests and small farms, experiencing hot summers and mild winters typical of the southeastern piedmont. The town is known for Devil's Den, an unusual geological formation where massive sandstone boulders create natural caves and crevices.
