Clarksville, TN history

Have you ever wanted to go back in time? Just to see how it might have been on the street you walk up and down every day or every weekend, once a month or 8 times a year. Just to see the method behind the madness or beauty of some buildings you see every single day. A building where you may work.

The smell, the feel of an old building that has seen more than you or I ever will.  The stories that these bricks or walls could tell! We’d all be captivated by their stories.

If you are a history buff, there is no better place to go than the small towns in our area.

Check out this video! I came across it this the other day and I was fascinated with the history! It prompted me to take a walk downtown this weekend!
