About Your Time at the Hermitage

Your day will start at The Hermitage, the home of President Andrew Jackson. Meticulously restored to its condition in 1837, the mansion at the Hermitage still features some original wallpaper, furniture, and personal belongings of the seventh president of the United States. You'll also be able to explore the lush and expansive gardens, the former slave quarters, and the 200-year-old log cabin that Jackson built to live in during the construction of the mansion.

About Your Time at Belle Meade Mansion

After exploring the land at The Hermitage, your trip will take you to the Belle Meade Mansion, featuring an 1832 slave cabin and 10 outbuildings that will almost literally transport you back to the antebellum South where Southern Belles and their gentlemen wandered the grounds. The Belle Meade Plantation was also a successful stud farm that was home to Iroquois, the first American horse to win the English Derby.
