Nestled in the heart of Franklin, Tennessee, The Factory at Franklin stands as a beacon of history, charm, and community spirit. Once a bustling stove factory, this iconic structure has been lovingly transformed into a vibrant hub of culture, cuisine, and commerce. Built in the early 20th century, The Factory has witnessed the ebb and flow of time, surviving the Great Depression and evolving through the decades. Its walls, steeped in history, tell a story of resilience and reinvention.


Today, The Factory is a celebration of creativity and community. It's a place where the past and present merge, offering a unique experience to locals and visitors alike. From handcrafted jewelry to bespoke furniture, The Factory is a treasure trove for those seeking the unique and extraordinary. It's not just a shopping destination; it's a journey into the heart of Franklin's creative soul.


The food scene at The Factory is as diverse as its history. Whether it's a gourmet coffee, a farm-to-table meal, or a sweet treat you're after, the flavors here are as rich and inviting as the atmosphere. The Factory is also home to a number of events that take place throughout the year. Every Saturday the Franklin Farmers Market is hosted here, the hours change with the seasons but rain or shine, you can find fresh local produce right outside. Within the walls of The Factory, you can find the Turner Theater, where live performances take place on a recently remastered theater stage.
