This health saw the Civil War from both sides, wealth and failure, a scandal of betrayal and revenge and generations of living. Carefully restored and re-created, you can see life in Knoxville of the 19th C and a look into a family that couldn't find peace. All this and lovely views. Fine guides. Take time to readh the displays.

If you are interested in history, this is a a great house to see. It was built a few years before the American Civil War, Both Armies occupied this home during this period, The same family lived in this home for most of the last 200 years. Therefore the home contains all the original furniture, a rarity in most historic house museums. This house is well worth the visit, our guide did a great job, we are thinking a return visit to Knoxville. There was a small charge of $5.00.

This was a last minute stop on the way to the airport and ended up being the best thing we did on vacation. We loved this lovely old mansion and it's oh so interesting history. If you want to see a pre civil war home with all the original furnishings, toys, dishes and even some clothing then this is the place for you. Call ahead so you can walk right on a tour and it's only $5. Compared to $59 for Biltmore-which we also visited on this trip-this is a bargain. And we enjoyed it so much more! Don't miss this fantastic home and it's story.

We were looking for somewhere to stop along our travels, and found this historic site on the 'things to do in knoxville' list. We are so glad that we stopped! We called ahead and left a message that we were coming later in the afternoon (the website reccommends this, as it si run by volunteers). We arrived later in the afternoon. We parked right in the front driveway. The tour guide (Calvin) greeted us and the tour began! The home is very well maintained, Calvin was able to give us some insight on the work that has been done to the home. The story of this family is unique and very interesting! I've never heard about this family before, but my husband and I both left wanting to learn more. The tour was $5 each, (a great price!) - the tour guide was very enthusiastic and covered so much more information then we ever expected to get!

I went with a group of women and enjoyed the tour and a tea luncheon on the porch. While the collections of glassware and furnishings are interesting, I really enjoyed the view and the grounds. The tour guide is very enthusiastic and makes the visit fascinating with stories of the family who lived here and of its Civil War history. Great place to watch fireworks for Boomsday. I believe they regularly offer a special for the event. Worth a visit and a fun place to book a group for a few hours.

The house is amazing in the fact that so much of the furnishings are original. The exterior has been well restored. The Civil War history and the story of Evelyn Hazen just add to the historical significance. Calvin Chapelle, Executive Director, was our tour guide and he has a wonderful command of the history and enthusiasm for the property. Knoxville is indeed lucky that this wonderful property has been restored and preserved for the public to view. Please go visit and support this gem.

The Mabry Hazen house tour provided a glimpse into the life of the fascinating family who lived here for over 100 years. In addition to enjoying the lovely original antiques which furnish the house, we were also fascinated by incredible tales of wealth, loss of wealth, gunfights, love, betrayal and much more. Oh, if those walls could talk........ With his wealth of knowledge about Knoxville, the Mabry/ Hazen families, and antiques ----as well as the Civil War, the tour guide made this a great experience, and I highly recommended it.

The Mabry Hazen House in Knoxville, TN has only had several generations, but only two familes to live within its' walls since it was built just before the Civil War in 1858.This home turned museum is not unlike many antebellum mansions that served as headquarters for both Union and Confederate forces during the Civil War. What makes it unique is that this stately, elegant home houses perhaps the largest original family collection of artifacts in use up until the 1980's when the last owner passed away and granted the house and its' belongings to be treasured and showcased for ages to come. It is a real treat to walk through this home and see the actual furnishings, china, silverware, artwork, clothing, bedding, and day-to-day articles of living that were used in this very home.It is a rare glimpse into Civil War era life

Our vacation this year was a trip back in time to the Civil War battlefields and historic sites. We took a day and went to Knoxville, touring various sites. I wanted to tour the Mabry House because of its connection with the Civil War but it was a wonderful surprise to hear the story of the Mabry Hazen house. The gentleman who narrated the tour was very knowledgable and nice. When you like what you do it shows in your work and he was so fascinating. I hope the foundation will be able to continue the restoration of this beautiful home.
