About

A unique sculpture made from genuine, American-made, cast-iron cookware.

Originally located in front of the Lodge corporate offices, the statue now greets visitors to the factory store. A visit to see the statue is worth the trip and the bargains at the factory store are a bonus. The City of South Pittsburg also has tons to offer with restaurants and unique shops galore. Just under 10-minutes off I-24 interstate, it's a great place to take a break from a long road trip.
