Blount Mansion, Tennessee, United States
4.5 (74 reviews) Saturday: 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM Spent Ranking #19 in Knoxville Architectural Buildings
Must see for tourists in Knoxville
This is a fabulous, interesting, educational tour of the home; you'll learn a lot about the family that lived there, and a lot about the early history of Knoxville, too. It is definitely worth your time when visiting Knoxville, and the entry fee is quite reasonable. I was fortunate to have Penny, a docent, as my tour guide. She gave a great tour, readily takes questions, and know a lot about the home, the family that built the home, and its history.

Great tour, an hour well spent
Docent Penny Wallace is the best! So informative and engaging. Accommodating. She allowed me to join a special tour as a "walk in." The history of the building and the Blount family was interesting. Early Tennessee at its best. I highly recommend the tour if you truly like history.

Interesting Tour of an Early Knoxville Historic Home
Our guide gave us an interesting tour of this early Knoxville home. We learned a lot about the family who occupied the house and how they came to settle in the area. Our guide was friendly and took the extra time to show us the upstairs of the house, even though it was in the process of being reinterpreted. This is a great quick stop for history buffs who are visiting downtown Knoxville.
