Albertville is a city in Marshall County, Alabama, in an area that was first settled by non-natives around the 1850s. It was named after an early settler and city leader from Georgia, Thomas A. Albert. It was incorporated in 1891 and granted a post office in 1910. The city was named “the Fire Hydrant Capital of the World” due to the presence of a fire hydrant manufacturer, the Mueller Company, and has a chrome fire hydrant in front of the Albertville Chamber of Commerce to commemorate the production of its one-millionth fire hydrant. Albertville's economy is also reliant on an automotive parts plant, several poultry processing plants, and a wholesale grocery distribution center. The city achieved a level of fame for being mentioned on two episodes of This American Life (a radio show and podcast) and for the mock winter games it hosted in 1992; the city's winter games were held at the same time as the Olympic Winter Games that were held in Albertville, France.
