To encourage industry and promote city expansion in the 1920s, the Franklin Kiwanis Club proclaimed its city Tennessee's Handsomest Town. As this fashionable moniker suggests, the city of Franklin, Tennessee, was and still is justifiably proud of its award-winning Main Street, picturesque rolling hills, and stately antebellum mansions. But the real history of Franklin and its people encompasses much more. Prehistoric mastodon hunters. Native American villages. Civil War battles. Floods. Urban sprawl. Political squabbles. Industrialization. And historic preservation.
