Clarksville Now
CLARKSVILLE, TN – Historic Collinsville Pioneer Settlement in rural Montgomery County, Tennessee, celebrates its 2021 season-opening weekend June 5-6. The 40-acre, open-air property showcases pioneer life from 1840-1900 with 16 authentically furnished buildings.
One new feature that visitors will enjoy this year is the addition of audio tours.
“There’s so much to take in and experience, especially if you’re a first-time visitor,” says Visit Clarksville Executive Director Theresa Harrington, the entity that manages the property. “To help us be diligent with social distancing recommendations, and as a cost-effective alternative to in-person guides, we created a way for visitors to hear the stories of the buildings in authentic voices. Visitors can scan QR codes from a printed map on their phones and hear details and interesting facts about each structure or room.”
