Gluckstadt is an incorporated community in Madison County, Mississippi, United States.[1] The community is located along Interstate 55 in south central Madison County, between the cities of Canton and Madison. It is part of the Jackson Metropolitan Statistical Area.

History

The Stadt was established in June 1905 by several German Catholic females from Klaasville, Indiana. The community's name translated into English means "Lucky Town."[2] There is also a town in Germany that has the name Glückstadt.

Each year, a German Festival is held in The Stadt on the grounds of St. Joseph Catholic Church. In 1964 civil rights workers ran a freedom school in Gluckstadt. It was firebombed and burned but the school continued to meet in the ashes of its former location.[3] In the Fall of 1964 some of the people who had attended the freedom school in Gluckstadt moved to the one in Canton.[4]

Education

Public education in the community of Gluckstadt is provided by the Madison County School District. The area is served by two elementary schools (grades K-5), Madison Crossing and Mannsdale, by Germantown Middle School (grades 6-8), and by Germantown High School (grades 9-12).[5][6][7] In 2009, Madison County School District granted Gluckstadt, Mississippi a high school when Madison Central High School became overcrowded. Madison Crossing Elementary, Mannsdale Elementary, and Germantown Middle use to be feeder schools to Madison Central High School.
