Pigeon Forge is a city located in Sevier County, Tennessee, in the United States. The city's history dates back to the early 1800s when the first settlers arrived in the area. The city's name comes from an iron forge that was built in the early 1800s, and the forge used to produce pig iron, hence the name "Pigeon Forge."
