Get oriented at the Visitor Center

Start your visit to the Andrew Johnson National Historic Site at the Visitor Center. Here you will be greeted by a Ranger or Volunteer who will give you orientation to the many places and things to do at the site. We are spread out all over town - but that was Andrew Johnson's fault - he kept moving! At the Visitor Center you can find the orientation film, museum, tailor shop, sales area - and restroom! This is also where you get tour tickets to the historic Homestead. The National Cemetery is about a mile away, and the attendant at the desk will provide a map to each place.
