Gatlinburg Museum Recalls Dukes of Hazzard

Whether you’re a long-time fan of the Dukes of Hazzard television series or a new buff thanks to the Jessica Simpson movie, you’ll find a unique museum in Gatlinburg, Tennessee that’s custom made for your interest.

Cooter’s Place is located on the edge of Gatlinburg (the community known as the Honeymoon Capital of the South thanks to its numerous wedding chapels and cozy cabins). Cooter, AKA Ben Jones, is the force behind the museum which houses several cars from the series as well as plenty of memorabilia ranging from clothing to toys to posters.

The star attraction, of course, is the General Lee, the orange Dodge Charger used in the popular series. Many times, you’ll find the General Lee parked right out in front of the museum (it does travel to make special appearances and there’s also a second Cooter’s Place coming to Nashville.)

For a few dollars, you can have your photo made inside the General Lee or, for no charge, enter the museum/gift shop for a look at the extensive collection of memorabilia the show spawned. A gift shop sells General Lee t-shirts and Cooter's Place souvenirs.

Hours

The museum is open daily. Admission is free.

Annual Events

The annual DukesFest is a huge gathering of show fans, held every summer in Gatlinburg. The event includes visits by cast members, drag racing, live music, and more.
