HISTORIC COLLINSVILLE

Enter Historic Collinsville and travel back through centuries! This rural settlement dates back to 1830, and has been authentically restored to accurately depict life in the early days of the community. The historic settlement was opened by the Weakly family, whose ancestors grew up on these very grounds. Collinsville features an array of historic buildings, including a blacksmith shop, schoolhouse, smokehouse, family homes and more. In each building you visit you can be sure to discover its history and purpose in the Collinsville community.

FORT DEFIANCE CIVIL WAR PARK & INTERPRETIVE CENTER

In November 1861, Confederate troops began to build a defensive fort that would control the river approach to Clarksville. They mounted three guns in the fort. On February 19, 1862, Federal gunboats came up the river from Fort Donelson and reported the fort displayed a white flag and was deserted. Today, visitors are encouraged to walk the trails and enjoy the history that the location represents. Displays, cannons, and the occasional reenactors are just some of the things you can enjoy on your visit to Fort Defiance.
