Although Demorest is a small city, it has many notable landmarks. A few of these landmarks include:
Demorest Springs Park, Old Demorest Train Depot, Demorest Women’s Club and the former Lake Demorest.
One of Demorest’s most popular landmarks is the Johnny Mize Athletic Center and Museum. The museum is owned by Piedmont University and is named for Baseball Hall of Famer Johnny Mize. Mize was born in Demorest, and played baseball at Piedmont. The museum houses Mize memorabilia from his time at Piedmont as well as from his professional baseball career with the St. Louis Cardinals, New York Giants and the New York Yankees. In addition to the museum, Mize’s childhood home is a Georgia Historical site with a private owner.
The most recent landmark is the new addition of the pedestrian bridge over a span of Historic U.S. 
441 in front of the Piedmont University campus. The new bridge was assembled off-site and lowered into place by crane. The bridge was modeled after the Vanderbilt University 21st Avenue Pedestrian Bridge. The installation of the bridge was a joint project of the Georgia Department of Transportation, Piedmont University and the City of Demorest.
