Preserving Our Past With Vision For Our Future
Welcome to the Town of Greeneville. Here you can find useful information about our government services and our beautiful and historic town.
Nestled at the foot of the Appalachian Mountains, Greeneville’s rich heritage as the home of the 17th U.S. President features the Andrew Johnson National Historic Site and National Cemetery.
Greeneville has grown to a population of 15,170 and is the county seat of Greene County, an area known for its scenic mountains and agricultural traditions.
The mission of the Town of Greeneville is to enhance our vibrant community by delivering high quality public service and effective communication to citizens and visitors.
The town’s unique spelling of GreenEville is in honor of Nathanael Greene, a heroic general to many Greene County men who served in the Revolutionary War. Civil War history and many other local artifacts are preserved in the Nathanael Greene Museum, located downtown at the corner of West McKee and South Main streets.
Main Street is lined with numerous churches, reflecting Greene County’s strong faith base with more than 250 places of worship.
