Andrew Johnson National Historic Site

Andrew Johnson National Historic Site

The Andrew Johnson National Historic Site honors the life of the 17th President. Andrew Johnson's presidency, 1865-1869, illustrates the United States Constitution at work following President Lincoln's assassination and during attempts to reunify a nation torn by civil war. His presidency shaped the future of the United States and his influences continue today. The site includes his house, a visitor center, a museum, and his final resting place, the Andrew Johnson National Cemetary.

We hope you enjoy our work.
