From Wikipedia:

The Hermitage is a historical plantation and museum located in Davidson CountyTennesseeUnited States, 10 miles (16 km) east of downtown Nashville. The plantation was owned by Andrew Jackson, the seventh President of the United States, from 1804 until his death at the Hermitage in 1845. Jackson only lived at the property occasionally until he retired from public life in 1837. Enslaved men, women, and children, numbering nine at the plantation’s purchase in 1804[3] and 110 at Jackson’s death,[4] worked at the Hermitage and were principally involved in growing cotton, its major cash crop. It is a National Historic Landmark.
