Sgt. Alvin C. York State Park in tiny Pall Mall in northeastern Middle Tennessee is celebrating the 100th anniversary of the infamous WWI battle that garnered fame for Sgt. York, who became an unintentional war hero. On Sept. 15, the park will conduct living history programs in the WWI trenches and allow guests to learn more about how the Meuse-Argonne Offensive shaped battle lines during the war and Sgt. York’s role.
In honor of this milestone, here are a few fun facts about Sgt. York and his eponymous state park:
My husband and I went there in 20202. Was a very enjoyable trip. Beautiful countryside to view on the drive. They give guided tours of the house. The guide answered all questions easily. The guide was able to point out the spot on the mountain where Alvin went to think ( as depicted in the movie). Not far from Granville, TN ( TN Mayberry) and Burgess Falls State Park. We stayed 1 night in Cookeville, TN and saw Granville day 1 and Burgess Falls and Alvin York State Park day 2.
