Former Presbyterian Church
Located on Alabama Road is the Presbyterian church, built ca. 1870. Located in the midst of a residential district, the institution influenced major developments in the growth of Cave Spring. The Presbyterian church has no longer been used since 1977. It is available for private use such as wedding ceremonies or as a display or performance space for festivals.
The Vann Cherokee Cabin
This hand-hewn cabin was built by Avery Vann, Jr., (1770-1845). Vann, a Scottish trader who married a Cherokee woman, was the brother of Cherokee Chief James Vann and his prominence in the area led to its designation as Vann’s Valley.
The Old Caboose
An old caboose, which was donated to the Cave Spring Historic Society, was moved from the outskirts of town near the old railroad depot building to a new site adjacent to the Cherokee Vann Cabin on the square downtown.
