The Andrew Johnson National Historic Site and Cemetery is one of the historic sites that make Greene County special.
Walking Tours Showcase Downtown Greeneville’s History
Historic landmarks throughout downtown Greeneville connect its past with its present and future. Although Greeneville is now thriving in the 21st century, reminders evidence that Andrew Johnson, 17th president of the United States, called the area his home more than 150 years ago. Visiting these historic places can make the past come alive. “A Walk With The President” is a tour brochure provided for those interested in walking or driving on a self-guided tour that allows you to see the sites that were once very
familiar to President Johnson. The latest edition is available at the Greene County Partnership, 115 Academy St., or at the Andrew Johnson Visitor Center, where College and East Depot streets meet in downtown Greeneville. “A Walk With The President” details the historic sites and provides a map for the tour. Through an agreement between Main Street: Greeneville and the National Park Service, two professionally guided walking tours of historic points in downtown Greeneville are offered from April through October.
The first is a 90 minute walking tour which departs the lobby of the General Morgan Inn Monday-Saturday at 9:30 a.m. Tours of the Dickson-Williams Mansion are also available. They are available year-round except for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s, and depart from the General Morgan Inn daily at 1 p.m. January and February may have limited availability due to weather. Call Main Street Tours at 423-639-7102 for more information or visit their website at SEE WALKING, 18
