This square is one of the smallest, but has a great deal to offer! Named for George Troup, a former Governor and Congressman. It is one of only two squares named for a person while he was still alive. (The other being Washington Square).
The center of the square holds an Armillary Sphere which was given to the City by Mills B. Lane. This sphere functions in the similar fashion as a sundial with many small, but phenomenal features.
Troup Square is also the home of the Meyers drinking fountain, a pet drinking fountain moved to the square from Forsyth Park in 1980.
Lastly, The Unitarian Church sits on Troup Square, also known as the "Jingle Bells" church. Rev. James Pierpont presumably wrote "Jingle Bells" while he was music director there.
