“Bennett Place has a vast collection of artifacts that tell the stories of the Bennett Family and the final weeks of the American Civil War. A non-profit organization called Bennett Place supports the museum and provides financial assistance and support. Notably, it was the location of the last surrender of a major Confederate army during the Civil War, when Joseph E. Johnston surrendered to William T. Sherman. Additionally, the site features a farmhouse, kitchen, and smokehouse that provide a glimpse into the daily life of a typical Southern farmer during the Civil War era. Visitors can explore the museum gallery and theatre, which showcases a 17-minute film titled "Dawn of Peace." Admission is free, and ample parking spaces are available.”
