Dive Into Civil War History

Murfreesboro and the surrounding areas are full of Civil War history. Start your day at Stones River National Battlefield. Home to one of the largest and deadliest battles of the Civil War, The Battle of Stones River, this 570-acre space includes memorials, memorabilia and more. After, head over to Oaklands Mansion, which served as a field hospital during the war. While you’re there, you can also check out Section M of their Evergreen Cemetery, which houses a monument to honor and tell the stories of Black Soldiers who were buried in unmarked graves. A short drive away, Smyrna’s Sam Davis Home and museum gives visitors an up-close look at life during the Civil War through the eyes of Sam Davis and his family. It is full of artifacts and specially preserved architecture, and they even host free family days and tea parties for kids on occasion. And though tours are not open to the public, you can’t miss a drive by the Mary Kate Patterson house in LaVergne. Patterson served as a Confederate spy during the war and is thought to be the first woman buried in Nashville’s Confederate Circle.

Try Their Famous Hot Wings (And More)

We know you’ve heard all about hot chicken, but this Tennessee town has a history with hot wings, too. Celebrating 40 years in 2025, Toot’s is famed for introducing hot wings to the area, and any local will tell you it’s a must-do to try them. Deep-fried and served with your choice of sauce, these wings are tasty, delicious and unforgettable. Speaking of food, there’s plenty more to enjoy while you’re here.

For something on the fancier side, Primrose Table and The Alley on Main never disappoint. Top it off with a sweet treat at Varin’s Sweet Shop, Simply Pure Sweets or OFLOW.

Listen To Live Music

It just wouldn’t be a trip to Tennessee without experiencing what we’re known for – but there’s plenty of music to experience outside of Music City. From country and blues to rock and soul, you’ll hear a little bit of it all at Hank’s Honky Tonk. Plus, they are open until midnight on weekdays and 1 a.m. on weekends. The Boro Bar and Grill has everything you’d want in a vibey live music joint: good food, good drinks, and of course, pool tables. Their schedule is as packed as their menu, so be sure to check out online who is playing in advance. And if you happen to be visiting in May, be sure to plan your trip around the Gallagher Music Fest. Taking place right in downtown Murfreesboro, there is music on repeat, plus great food, drinks and local vendors.
