Cherry Mansion came of note during the Civil War when Gen. Ulysses S. Grant made his headquarters at the home during the Battle of Shiloh.

Tickets for the event are $15 each and include a continental breakfast, a storytelling program by the attending generals, and a tour of Cherry Mansion. Tours are for breakfast ticket holders only and are immediately following the breakfast performance.

This event is one of many being held during the 157^th anniversary of the Battle of Shiloh. The day continues by offering a visit to the Tennessee River Museum in downtown Savannah and then you are encouraged to follow in Grant’s footsteps taking the trip across the river to Shiloh National Military Park.
