Cheekwood Botanical Garden and Museum of Art, Botanical garden and art museum in Nashville, United States

The 55-acre estate features formal gardens, woodland trails, and a 30,000-square-foot Georgian mansion displaying American and European art collections.

The Cheek family built this limestone estate in 1932 after selling their Maxwell House Coffee company to Postum Cereals for 40 million dollars.

The museum maintains the third-largest Worcester porcelain collection in the United States, alongside 650 silver pieces from the 18th through 20th centuries.

Visitors need to reserve timed-entry tickets online, with options for garden-only access or combined garden and mansion tours between 9 AM and 3:30 PM.

The property transformed from a private residence to a public institution in 1960, merging the collections of the former Nashville Museum of Art.
