Elm Bluff is a historic former forced-labor farm and plantation house in the rural community of Elm Bluff, Dallas County, Alabama, United States.[1] Situated on a bluff high above the Alabama River, the now near-ruinous house is considered by architectural historians to be one of the most refined and unusual Greek Revival-style houses in the state.[2]
