Blount Mansion - Birthplace of Tennessee
Nestled in the center of Downtown Knoxville's government district, Blount
Mansion offers history that is hard to miss. Here, among the towers of
glass, steel and brick, sits a house - small by today's standards, but a
mansion on the Tennessee frontier. Known by the Cherokee Indians as "the
house with many eyes," Blount Mansion has watched American history parade through its rooms and on the streets outside. Step inside and share Tennesee's big stories with us.
