Union City (Tennessee) Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels

About Union City (Tennessee)

Union City got its name from the union of two railroads, the Nashville and Northwestern Railroad and the Mobile and Ohio Railroad, back around 1854. It developed alongside, as you might expect, tobacco and labor intensive cotton growing, with all that goes along with that. Later years saw some manufacturing, including a Goodyear Tire plant, but the latter didn't last, and the town looks a little rough around the edges. A bit ironically, it has a theme park devoted to innovation called Discovery Park of America. It also sits near the New Madrid fault.
