Fort Negley

Nashville was taken over and developed by the Union forces to be the most equipped city of North America right after its captivation in 1862. It took them only 3 months to build the fort. The remains of Fort Negley remind us always of this historical event. The fort is strategically established on a hill in the south portion of Nashville downtown at the convergence of Interstate 65 and Interstate 40, beside the Cumberland. The Fort Negley complex most exhibits and displays are about European forts.
