Formerly known as Pickens Courthouse, Pickens is a city in Pickens County, South Carolina, and is the seat of that county. In the early 1800s, a few European traders lived among the Cherokee in this area, and sometime in the middle of that century, more Scottish and Irish settlers moved into the area. The city and county are named for Andrew Pickens, a Revolutionary War hero.
