Orr Park

Dubbed one of the most unique parks and nature preserves in the south, Orr Park is Montevallo's crowning jewel. Bordering the picturesque Shoal Creek, this forty-acre park features traditional amenities such as athletic fields, pavilions, a gazebo, and restroom facilities, but the magical tree carvings throughout Tinglewood remain our greatest local attraction. Pedestrians and cyclists traveling throughout the park are as likely to pass by gnomes, a dragon, or a fish eating a snake as they are to pass by a local family walking their dog. Tinglewood is solely credited to Mr. Tim Tingle, a coal miner by trade who took it upon himself to transform storm damaged cedar trees into glorious works of art in the early 1990's. He continues to bless the city with his talents for residents and visitors to enjoy. 

Orr Park's original land was donated to the City of Montevallo by former Mayor Dr. Milton Orr.
