What an eye opener. A great history lesson. We had a fantastic guide. He went over his time but it wad well worth it. Definitely visit the Carter house. I also saw walnuts which fell from trees on the ground. Who knew!

My boys really enjoyed the tour here and learned a lot about the Battle of Franklin.
Carter House was built in 1830 and originally owned by Fountain Branch Carter. During the Battle of Franklin, Carter House was used as a U.S. Army headquarters. The Carter family, a neighboring family, and several enslaved people sheltered in the cellar during the horrific combat. Visitors learn the story of the family, the battle, and how the Civil War redefined America.
