This mansion, built between 1815 and 1821, hosted many notables: Marquis de Lafayette, Henry Clay, and Presidents Jackson and Polk. During the war it served as headquarters for both Union and Confederate officers while they were in Greeneville. It was in this house that Gen. John Hunt Morgan, the Rebel Raider, spent his last night before he was killed in the garden on September 4, 1864. The room where General Morgan slept contains the original furniture that was there when he occupied the room.

Made for some great photos using the city lights of Greeneville as the backdrop.

Very historic home in downtown Greeneville, Tennessee.

Nice history side trip. Very detailed tour with a lot of info, plan on spending a couple hours plus.

Reenactment of the capture of General J. H. Morgan.

Wonderful house full of all sorts of history. Place where general Morgan was killed in the civil war. Then was a hospital for a time, then restored as a historic beauty. Fully recommended.

Awesome place to visit.
