The Gadsden Downtown Historic District is a historic district in Gadsden, Alabama. The district represents the growth of the town through its industrial heyday from the late 1870s to the late 1940s. The earliest buildings in the district include examples of highly decorated Italianate styles, including the 1904 Gadsden Times-News Building. Early 20th-century buildings began showing less applied decoration, instead drawing visual variety from the brickwork itself. Later buildings begin to incorporate modern materials in their construction, including concrete, decorative glass, and enameled panels. There are three significant churches in the district that represent revivalist architectural styles:the Gothic Revival First Methodist Church (built 1894), the Neoclassical First Baptist Church (built 1926), and the Romanesque St. James Catholic Church (built 1927). The Post Office and Courthouse, built in 1910, exhibits Italian Renaissance Revival style. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.

Noccalula Falls Park was listed on the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage on May 12, 1976. It was rated in 2017 as the best campsite in Alabama in a 50-state survey conducted by Msn.com.The falls drop itself has been run successfully in whitewater kayaks on multiple occasions, beginning in late November 2011 when three expert kayakers ran the drop. The water level was unusually high, permitting a deep enough pool to form at the base of the falls. Local law enforcement has since issued citations to paddlers for running the falls, as the state does not consider this stretch a state-owned water bottom. The Noccalula Falls Botanical Gardens displays over 25,000 azaleas.
