Have Your Wedding at Carnton!
From two American Presidents to socialites at soirées, Historic Carnton Plantation has been a gathering place for ladies and gentlemen over the last two centuries. Now, the history of Carnton has been memorialized in the best-selling novel The Widow of the South. Make your wedding a part of our tradition as you wed in the one-acre 1847 restored garden under our magnificent one hundred fifty-year-old Osage Orange tree or on one of the two Greek Revival porches of the House.

BOFT 2012 Campaign.
As 2012 dawns, we are headed into the second year of the Civil War Sesquicentennial, which will be one of the most important years of this incredible commemoratory event. At the Battle of Franklin Trust, we will be remembering how the year 1862 impacted Middle Tennessee and how the war in the Western Theater shaped the final outcome of the great struggle. Of course, we will continue with our primary mission, which is to tell the story of the Battle of Franklin and its importance in the overall history of the Civil War.
This letter comes to you not only to ask for your help, but to tell you about some upcoming Battle of Franklin Trust projects and to let you know how much we have already accomplished.
