historic carnton plantation印象

Unfortunately we did not know that the one-hour tour was only offered during set times and we weren't able to participate. We did pay for ground passes and enjoyed looking at the estate, the out buildings, the cemetary and the impressive garden. The map/booklet gave us lots of information, however without the tour you can't get into the home which is a highlight of the tour. Next time we will plan better. If you go - be sure to wear comfortable shoes or boots if ground is soggy - you do a lot of 'off-path' walking.

It's even better than the famous bloodstains on the floors upstairs. They have done a wonderful job investing in this extremely historical home, grounds and confederate cemetery. Don't miss this for the historical home and historical interpretation.

This is the famous Carnton Plantation where a famous Civil War Battle was fought where ten generals were wounded from both sides. It's the basis of the best seller book The Widow of the South. If you're visiting Franklin, this is a must see for it's history..one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War and it was basically set up as a hospital for all the wounded.. sad but a part of our history.

It is amazing to walk thru the home and the grounds. You can feel the history all around. We have also attended a wedding on the grounds. Just beautiful. The home has been well preserved and Is an important piece of american history

Great tour. Our guide Rusty was very knowledgable. His tour was more like the telling of a story of the battle of Franklin while walking through the home.

Amazing to visit this homestead and learn of the families plights during the Battle of Franklin. A real look into a most significant timein our country's history.

The history surrounding this place is incredible. From the house, with the blood stained floors, to the surroundings, including the confederate cemetery, is all just breath taking, and so awe inspiring to think of all that happened on November 30, 1864.

Very much enjoyed the tour with Rich - my 15 year old enjoyed it but it was our third tour of the day so he was wearing out - he said he wished we had saved it for the next day when we wasn't so tired. Allow an hour for the house tour and then more time to tour the grounds and the Confederate Cemetery on your way out.

I usually dislike tours, but this one was the best I've experienced. The tour guide did not shy away from the harsh truth (I've heard guides before gloss over slavery and battlefield medicine), but did not go into gory details sorely for dramatic effect. The house and adjoining cemetery are beautiful and sad at the same time. If a Franklin visitor only has time for one Civil War destination, this should be it.

The enormity of it, and realizing that everything was done by hand by people just like you and me. The travails of the slaves was omnipresent, along with absence of things that we take for granted in our daily lives, such as mass communication devices, and cooking utensils, just to name a couple. See it. You won't forget it.
