The city's name was later adopted from the local Mount Zion Methodist Episcopal Church, established 1865, which had soon became the center point of the community, and in 1878 the name Turkey Creek Mills was changed to Mount Zion. In 1877, Reverend James Mitchell took his ministry to Mount Zion and founded the Mount Zion Seminary, the predecessor institution of the current Mount Zion High School. The Georgia General Assembly incorporated Mount Zion as a town in 1912 and re-chartered in 1953 and again in 1978. Mount Zion is one of the few places in the United States with the Confederate battle flag incorporated in its municipal flag, which is based on the 1956 Georgia state flag and inspired by the Trenton, Georgia city flag that began flying in 2002.
