Nashville Attractions

Country Music Hall of Fame

The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum is the home of this popular American art form, safeguarding over 2.5 million artifacts, with two expansive floors of gallery space.

Fort Nashborough

Nashville’s roots can be traced back to 1779 when the first permanent American settlements were established along the bluffs above the Cumberland River. Fort Nashborough, known originally as the Bluff Station, served to protect pioneers from armed incursions by Native Americans hostile to the expansion of white settlers into the area. The largest engagement took place in April, 1781, when a force of Chickamaugan Cherokee, led by Dragging Canoe, unsuccessfully attacked the station in what was known as the “Battle of the Bluffs.”

Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum

Discover the Stories Behind Session Musicians, Engineers and Producers

Each exhibit tells the story of a musician that you may have heard but may have never seen. The Musicians Hall of Fame is a premiere Nashville attraction and the one and only museum in the world that honors the talented musicians who actually played on the greatest recordings of all time.

Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame

The Hall celebrates athletes of all forms, from all across the great state of Tennessee. Being the Volunteer State, we strive to support and give back to our communities. TSHF aspires to educate our youth about the importance of healthy habits and hope to have a positive impact on their lifestyle choices. The lessons learned through sports can be carried throughout one’s life and influence a person on a multitude of factors.
