Moore County, Tennessee
Lynchburg, TN isn't a place you "pass through" on your way to somewhere else. It is so off the beaten path, it's either your destination or you are lost. It is a tiny little town in a tiny little county with one BIG industry - JACK DANIELS DISTILLERY. Granted, most people come to Lynchburg the first time to take the tour of the oldest registered distillery in the United States.
If you take the time to stay a little longer, you will discover an American dream:
An old fashioned town, the likes of which you may have thought no longer existed. A charming town square surrounds the 100 year old courthouse. You will soon be browsing leisurely through a variety of unique shops. No need to hurry. Just stop and chat awhile. Life moves at a slower pace in Lynchburg.
A drive around Moore County will leave you breathless. The sight of magnificent rolling hills, horse and cattle farms, beautiful old homes and churches, will have you humming God Bless America. You may have to stop while a flock of turkeys cross the road in front of you and be on the look out for deer. And yes, that fellow who just passed you in his pickup truck waved at you. That's a Lynchburg tradition.
