Germantown is Nashville's oldest suburb, established in the 1850s by German immigrants. Today it's one of Nashville's most desirable neighborhoods — restored Victorian homes, chef-owned restaurants, craft breweries, and one of the most walkable grids in the city. Located just north of downtown (10-minute walk from Broadway), Germantown puts you within walking distance of the stadium.
