Membership

Lotz House Foundation is a 501 (c)(3) non profit organization. We invite you to take part in making history, while preserving history.

Mission Statement

The Lotz House Foundation is dedicated to protecting, preserving and educating people on the history and culture of the historic Civil War Battle of Franklin, Tennessee in 1864. We are committed to enriching lives through preserving the stories of the time along with the lifestyle, furnishings and fine art of the period.

Your participation as an individual or corporate member will help ensure the protection of the property, the antiques and the continuation of the museum for generations to come. It will also enable the educational and historical aspects of the Lotz House and illuminate the role it played in Civil War history.

With your gift of membership, we can continue the vision and mission of the Lotz House and enhance the experience for the visitors. Whether you have an interest in the Civil War, historic preservation, education or antiques and the arts, we welcome your participation. Take part in history!
