Welcome to Monteagle

Monteagle is a charming mountain town perched atop the southern edge of the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee. Founded in the late 19th century, it has a rich cultural and spiritual heritage, most notably through the Monteagle Sunday School Assembly—a historic retreat center that continues to host educational and faith-based programs.
 
The town also played a significant role in the Civil Rights Movement through the Highlander Folk School, which welcomed influential leaders like Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr. With its scenic beauty and deep-rooted history, Monteagle offers a unique blend of tranquility and purpose.
 
Despite its small population of under 1,400 residents, Monteagle is a vibrant destination for travelers and nature lovers. It’s famously located along a dramatic stretch of Interstate 24 known as “Monteagle Mountain,” a route celebrated in music and folklore. The town is surrounded by natural wonders, including the Fiery Gizzard Trail, Greeter Falls, and the Stone Door—all part of the South Cumberland State Park system. Monteagle also features cozy inns, locally owned shops, and rustic restaurants that reflect its mountain-town charm and welcoming spirit.
 
Monteagle is more than just a scenic stop—it’s a community where history, nature, and culture come together. Residents enjoy a slower pace of life, fresh mountain air, and a strong sense of connection to the land and each other. Whether you're hiking through ancient trails, attending a summer program at the Assembly, or simply relaxing on a porch with a view, Monteagle offers a peaceful and enriching lifestyle. It’s a place that honors its past while embracing the present, making it a memorable destination and a meaningful place to call home.
