Thing to Do
Explore How it all Began - the Early Home
Andrew Johnson's Early Home in Greeneville sits adjacent to the site parking lot and could be your first stop en route to the Visitor Center. It is an appropriate beginning place - this is where Andrew and Eliza started their own family and Johnson experienced his first successes in local and national politics.
Three downstairs rooms are available to tour. This house contains exhibits that explore Andrew Johnson's life prior to becoming President. Learn about his apprenticeship to a tailor in Raleigh, NC, his journeys throughout a young America before settling in East Tennessee, and his start in the business world & political sphere.
