History

Nahunta, originally called Victoria, was founded about 1870. It is believed that the town was renamed in 1899 for timber executive N.A. Hunter, but the origin of the name has never been officially verified. In 1923, the seat of Brantley County was transferred to Nahunta from Hoboken.

The Georgia General Assembly incorporated Nahunta as a city in 1925.

In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Nahunta gained national attention for its armadillo festival during the first weekend in May, that included the “Brantley County Armadillo Olympics” and “a cookout with armadillo prominently featured on the menu”.
