Feel like a short drive away from the hustle of the city? Just ten miles away, the Hermitage offers visitors a peak into the life of Andrew Jackson, the seventh president of the United States.

Offering guided tours of the mansion, guests may see just how the Jackson family lived and thrived in what was then rural Tennessee. Audio-visual wands are also available, providing guests with the opportunity to walk through the additional buildings and outdoor areas to gain even more insight into what life must have been like at the Hermitage. Visitors may also view Andrew Jackson's tomb.
