Step Back in Time
Nestled on the banks of the Cumberland River, just one hour east of Nashville, Historic Granville offers a unique blend of Southern charm and rich history. Known as Tennessee’s Mayberry Town, Granville invites you to stroll its storybook streets, experience a slower pace, and enjoy the simpler pleasures of small-town America. With front porches that beckon visitors to “sit a spell,” Granville preserves the essence of a bygone era.

Operated by Volunteers, Fueled by Community
Granville thrives thanks to the dedication of over 200 volunteers who bring the town to life. From docents to event organizers, these volunteers ensure every visit is memorable. Due to their generous contributions, the town operates on limited hours: Wednesday-Friday from 10 AM-3 PM and Saturday from 10 AM-5 PM. Start your day at 10 AM with a tour of Sutton General Store and purchase a town tour ticket for $7.00, granting you access to all historic buildings and museums.
