Ben Epps (1888-1937)

The newest statue in Athens is of Ben Epps. He was the first Georgian to build and fly an airplane. Our airport in Athens is named for him.






Located across the street from the statue is a bar that stands in the location where Ben Epps had his bicycle shop. The historical marker tells his story.
