Irondale is a city with over a century of Southern Heritage, it is located just outside Birmingham. The name Irondale was taken from a furnace located just west of what is now the city limits. The furnace was first known as the Cahaba Iron Works, but the local folks always called the place Irondale. The furnace was used to make iron, which was fashioned into munitions for the Confederate Army. The furnace was eventually destroyed during the latter part of the War Between the States. Irondale sits in a valley with Red Mountain to its north and Cahaba Mountain or Shades Mountain to its south and southeast. Nearby area attractions include the Southern Museum of Flight, the Birmingham Botanical Gardens, The Alabama Sports Hall of Fame, the Birmingham Museum of Art, the Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame, the Arlington Antebellum Home and Gardens, the Meyer Planetarium, the University of Alabama at Birmingham, the Birmingham Zoo, the Tannehill Ironworks Historical State Park, and the Visionland Amusement Parks. The book, and later a film, Fried Green Tomatoes, written by Irondale native Fannie Flagg, is loosely based around the town and the landmark Whistle Stop Cafe. Irondale is also the location of Catholic radio and television broadcaster EWTN, the Eternal World Television Network.
