TENNESSEE

A regional history museum of the Ocoee Region. "The River of Time" core exhibit includes seven time periods dating from prehistory to today and interprets how people of this region lived, worked and played. Using video and displayed artifacts, you can meet "Fallen Sky" (an aging Cherokee), a traveling missionary, a child (petrified pants, stiff shoes, swinging washer and butter churn), a railroad conductor (progress), a black teacher, or a TVA carpenter. Great stories with hands-on activities at each station. Did you know Cleveland, Tennessee is the stove capital of the world?
