White Bluff, also known as Ecor Blanc, is a historic site located along the Tombigbee River in Demopolis, Alabama.
The upper portions of the cliff stood almost 80 feet (24 m) above the river before the construction of the Demopolis Lock and Dam downriver.
[1] White Bluff was first named Ecor Blanc by 18th century French explorers and map makers.
It also became known as the Chickasaw Gallery because early Native American inhabitants harnessed their boats at the foot of the cliff.
[3] White Bluff is the site for the main event of the annual Christmas on the River festival.
