The Hermitage Visitor and Education Center sits at 4580 Rachels Lane, targeting 2030.
The Hermitage Visitor and Education Center is a planned 70,000-square-foot visitor center and museum at Andrew Jackson's Hermitage in the Hermitage area of Nashville, Tennessee, developed by the Andrew Jackson Foundation as the centerpiece of a $132 million transformation of the 1,200-acre presidential site. Designed by Perkins&Will under the concept "Held by the Land," the building follows the natural contours of the property, with much of it set below grade to preserve historic sight lines across the landscape, and is reached by a new tree-lined entry road and re-oriented walking paths. Museum and interpretive exhibits are by Gallagher & Associates. The wider plan adds an outdoor amphitheater and Visitor Comfort Facility funded by a state appropriation, restored historic spaces and new visitor amenities, replacing the site's existing visitor center.
