All of this doesn’t even touch on the many year round attractions that make Clarksville distinctive. From the Customs House Museum to Beachaven Winery and Vineyards, we can provide a list of “must sees” for your visit. A quick peek at our calendar and you can see we’ve got a whole lotta shakin’ going on. Clarksville has a great deal to brag about. Like our rich river heritage or our diverse community, represented by over 26 countries. But those things are better left to experience on your own terms. Words do not do justice to all that the area has to offer. Instead, pack your bags, throw the family in the car, and come by for a weekend. You won’t be disappointed. Restored with brick sidewalks and intersections, period lighting, benches and planters, the Franklin Street thoroughfare represents the centerpiece of a re-emerging downtown district. Explore the area at your leisure by taking the self-guided Walk Clarksville Tour.

Clarksville is proud to be neighbors with Fort Campbell Army Base. Fort Campbell is home to the only Air Assault Division in the world, the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault). Two prestigious Special Operations Command units, the 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne) and the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (Airborne) also call Fort Campbell home. Words cannot express the sense pride and appreciation Clarksville has for our service men and women. Fort Campbell began as Camp Campbell in 1942 in preparation for US involvement in WWII. It served a valuable training ground for America’s soldiers with over a quarter of all US troops moving through Camp Campbell. In 1950 the name was officially changed to Fort Campbell, becoming a permanent Army installation. Civilian visitors can gain access to Ft. Campbell through Gate 4 off of Ft. Campbell Blvd (US-41A). Proper identification is required when entering post.
