Antique Shopping

Step back in time as you stroll through Franklin’s antique shops, each one brimming with personality and Southern charm. From vintage vinyl to hand-carved furniture and forgotten curios, it’s a treasure hunt waiting to happen. Chat with the shopkeepers, sip a local coffee, and see what rare gem you uncover.

Some of our favorites: Visit Nantahala Antique Mall and Attic Antiques and Whistlestop Antiques. For a snack between shops, try Franklin’s Bake Shop or Root + Barrel.
