When visiting Franklin TN there is an abundance of wonderful Historic Landmarks The presbyterian Church on "Five Points" at Main Street is a place you will want to see.
The church was founded by Gideon Blackburn in Franklin in 1811.
Not the original site the church moved here in 1842. The Franklin Female Institute was established here in the mid 1800s. Near the end of the Civil War the church served as a hospital for the wounded of the Battle of Franklin, one of the war's the most costly in lives and number of wounded soldiers.
Additional notable pastors A.N. Cunningham who established the Franklin Female Institute and Samuel H. Chester who served in the 1890s.
This Church and its heritage help enrichen our Franklin communtiy. Just another reason why I love living in Franklin.
