Andrew Jackson’s former home combines a mansion tour with plantation grounds, gardens and the stories of enslaved people. It merits a longer visit than a quick presidential-house stop.

The preserved house shows Jackson’s domestic life, while the grounds reveal the larger plantation that supported it. Seeing the kitchen’s separation from the mansion and the interpreted sites of the enslaved community helps connect the polished rooms to the labor behind them.
What to look for
The mansion preserves rooms associated with Jackson and his family.
Grounds include gardens, historic buildings and Jackson’s tomb.
Interpretation addresses the enslaved community on the plantation.
Useful to know
