Old Photos of the original Kow-liga (Kowaliga Bridge, Wetumpka, AL)
The original Kowliga made famous by Hank Williams Sr.
(Photos taken late 50′s to early 1960′s) This is the original wooden statue of an American Indian nicknamed “Kowliga.” The statue was immortalized by Hank Williams Senior. While vacationing in Wetumpka, he wrote a song called “Kow-liga,” which was inspired by the wooden statue. As time passed, people took parts of Kowliga as souvenirs, until one day poor old Kowliga was damaged beyond saving! A replica now stands in his place, and can be seen at Sinclair’s on Lake Martin. Hank William’s cabin can be seen at the Children’s Harbor near the Kowaliga Bridge.
