In and Around G-Town

Like most places we’ve heard of, Gallatin has a past. There are some beautiful and interesting historic sites in Gallatin. Check out Historic Rose Mont, a plantation house built in the 1830s. Keep an eye on their calendar to visit during one of their special events like the Tour of Historic Homes, Rose Mont Festival, and Merry Mantles. Rose Mont also offers space for weddings, so if you’re hearing the ‘ol ding-a-ling of those bells, consider having your bash here. History buffs can visit the Summner County Museum in Gallatin for more info on local history. For a different and possible very creepy historical experience, catch the annual Candlelight Cemetery Tour. Ooooh.

Gallatin has many special events going on throughout the year. As a resident you can enjoy things like Spring’s Squarefest, Fall’s Main Street Festival, and the Gallatin Christmas Parade.
