This linen-era post card shows the 1858 Williamson County Courthouse along the town square in Franklin. In the foreground is a Civil War cannon in the middle of the square which is still there today. The biggest difference between the courthouse then and today is the white paint. The paint was removed sometime in the late 70's or early 80's to reveal the original brick. The courthouse today also has a 1976 expansion behind the historic front.
