Student Field Trips to The Carter House and Carnton Plantation
Planning a field trip for your students?
It couldn’t be easier. Preserved as a living classroom of American history, The Carter House and Carnton Plantation are best known for their significant roles during and immediately following the November 30, 1864 Battle of Franklin. Your students will get a glimpse of antebellum life on a Tennessee farm as they explore our property.
