History of Dollywood

Dollywood is an amusement park that began in 1985 when Dolly Parton made the decision to bring a home style amusement park to the mountains of Tennessee. She picked a location that had already shown promise with a small park called Silver Dollar City Tennesse, which had been created by the same family that had opened Silver Dollar City in Branson, Missouri. With Jack and Pete Herschend as the co-owners, Dolly broke ground on the new park in 1985. The park has live music and rides as well as crafts based on the actual people that live in the area. The park has local artisans that will make crafts to sell and will also provide training for a craft project.
