The Gadsden Coca-Cola Bottling Plant is a historic building in Gadsden, Alabama. It was built in 1929 by the Coca-Cola Company to replace a facility that had opened in 1915. In 1948–49, a two-story rear addition and one-story wing were built. The plant remained in use until 1987, when a new plant was built in the eastern part of town. The brick building is two stories, with a tile hipped roof and bracketed eaves. The original entrance features a stone surround with a keystone, but the door has since been replaced with a single-pane window. A similar entrance between the original block and the 1940s single-story addition which has scoring to imitate blocks and a Coca-Cola bottle carved into the lintel. The west elevation has a carved terra cotta sign with the Coca-Cola script logo. A separated auto garage and storage facility stands behind the main building, and is constructed of the same brick.^[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2023.^[1]
