Possibly, the five bloodiest hours of America's Civil War took place here at the Battle of Franklin. On November 30, 1864, Carnton was occupied by Confederate troops moving toward the well-entrenched Federal army. A devastating battle ensued. Later, the mansion housed hundreds of the more than 6,000 Confederate casualties from that battle. Adjoining the property is the largest private Confederate cemetery in America.

Admission: $7 adults, $5 senior citizens, $3 ages 6-12, free under 6 years. Disabled access is limited to the first floor and the grounds.

  • Tour Guide - very good.
  • Not enough "books" on Canton Plantation.

“The tour was wonderful. Our tour guide was very detailed and very emotional when talking of the home and those that lived there. The cemetery was very surreal. I recommend this visit when going to Franklin. Allow at least 2 hours. Very friendly staff and lots of parking. Easy to locate!”
