Students of the Civil War know Franklin, Tennessee, for the major
battle that happened here, but there is a lot more to the story. In
fact, Main Street in Franklin is a glimpse into 250 years of
history. Within a few blocks surrounding the public square, some of
the city's original buildings now house the newest and most popular
shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues in Middle Tennessee.
Franklin has been a center for agriculture and manufacturing. It is
a place where families can enjoy small-town life on the interstate.
It is home to a college. It has always been the seat of Williamson
County. Franklin's small businesses have a habit of sticking around
for decades, often passing through generations of the same family.
Franklin is as quaint and picturesque as it is exciting and
progressive, because it continues to attract the kind of people who
have always made it that way.
