In February, Williamson County opened Moore-Morris History and Culture Center, a 6,000-square-foot interactive facility that explores history in a more comprehensive way than downtown Franklin has offered in the past. Housed in a 1905 building, the cultural center explores what life was like inside a tavern on the nearby Natchez Trace Parkway, post-war industrial development and Indigenous populations of the area, and even tells the stories of those incarcerated in the old county jail. If you’re the kind of person who likes to push every audio button and read every map, a tour through the three-story building could take several hours.Â
