Franklin

Franklin combines a well-preserved nineteenth-century downtown with the momentum of a growing Nashville-area community, reflecting its historical position on the Harpeth River in Middle Tennessee. Main Street’s commercial buildings, independent shops and restaurants give the centre a lived-in civic character rather than the feel of a museum district. The Battle of Franklin, fought here on 30 November 1864 during the American Civil War, is interpreted at sites including the Carter House and Carnton. Parks and greenways along the Harpeth add a quieter counterpoint to the town’s busy centre. Explore nearby webcam locations that provide complementary perspectives on Franklin and Middle Tennessee.
