This grand house called the Brown-Lanier, has rested on the banks of the Cumberland River since 1830.  It was the home of the miller operating the grist mill just below the house.  Thirteen springs still power the largest operating overshot water wheel in the country.

The house served as a home, headquarters and hospital before and after the Battle of Mill Springs, the first Union victory of the Civil War.  Three Generals occupied the house.  General Felix K. Zollicoffer C.S.A., General Manson Malone U.S.A. and General George H. Thomas, U.S.A.

The Associations mission is preserving this property which is a unique part of our heritage and national history.  Please enjoy and respect.
