Mrs. Nash's Top 10 Must-See List
Antebellum Plantation Homes
Belmont Mansion of Belmont University - Nashville, Tennessee.Nashville has a number of vintage plantation homes that provide the visitor with a taste of life the upper crust of society lived during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in and around Nashville.
Close to downtown is Belle Meade Mansion, Belmont Mansion (former home of one of Tennessee's most wealthy women), and Travelers Rest. A bit further out of town are Carnton Mansion, Two Rivers Mansion, and The Hermitage (former President Andrew Jackson's home). Tours are available at most (if not all) of these facilities.
Other historic homes further out of town, but still an easy drive, also offer tours and interesting history. For these, Mrs. Nash recommends the Carter House (not a grand plantation home, but historic nonetheless) , which was at the center of the Battle of Franklin. Here on the porch of this battle scarred house, six dead Confederate generals were laid out in the kind of grisley of display Hollywood's film-makers might appreciate. Mrs. Nash says that if she'd married a little sooner she would have had time to lay out two of her ex-husbands along side them.
