Franklin Battlefield
Together we have saved 178 Acres
Set amidst the southern outskirts of Franklin, Tennessee, recently reclaimed portions of this historic landscape and interpretive centers at the Carter House, Carnton Plantation and Assault on the Cotton Gin Park provide visitors a unique window into this bloody 1864 battle. A museum is located one block west of the Carter House.
