    The Hermitage

    Since The Hermitage opened as a museum in 1889 nearly 15 million people have crossed its threshold. At the Andrew Jackson Visitor Center, you purchase your tickets and can watch a fifteen minute introductory film on Andrew Jackson and The Hermitage. While at the Center be sure to view the exhibits on Jackson and The Hermitage and explore the gallery's changing exhibits. The Hermitage Museum Store and Garden Gate Cafe are also located in the Center. The Hermitage mansion has been meticulously restored to its 1837 appearance and today looks much as it did when Andrew Jackson returned to it after finishing his second term as President. When you arrive at the Hermitage mansion costumed historical interpreters greet you and prepare you for your tour. Inside historical interpreters stationed throughout the house tell you about Jackson, his family, and his home and answer any questions you have. Self-guided tours of The Hermitage grounds are also available and have much to offer including the Hermitage garden, Jackson's tomb, and the Beyond the Mansion tour of sites related to slavery, farming, and nature at The Hermitage. Hours: Monday-Sunday 8:30am-5:00pm (April 1-October 15), and 9:00am-4:30pm (October 16-March 31). The Hermitage is closed Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the third week in January. Price: $14/Adult, $12/Seniors, $10/Students(13-18), $6/Children(6-12), Free/Under 5
