Insightful Self Tour using QR scan on your phone
Use your phone for informative narration to self-tour. Located near the Downtown Riverfront, James White Fort is easy to access from Interstate 40. Nearby is Downtown Market Square, The Old City, and UT . We highly recommend using your phone to scan the QR codes found throughout the Fort for very interesting narration. You can probably cover grounds in an hour if empty. Without the narration, few would know what they are looking at.

Beginnings of Knoxville
This was a neat little fort in downtown Knoxville. The fort is a replica; however, the main house and kitchen are original buildings from the 1780s when James White settled the area. There is onsite parking, cheap admission, a small gift shop, and plenty of things to see and learn about the founding of Knoxville.
