Established in late 1999, the ownerβs vision for the Whistle Stop Mall was to create a place where visitors can see and touch history through the years. This vision has become the most unique shopping experience under one roof! Whistle Stop is located in the beautiful town of Franklin, a place that is rich with culture and heritage, and can be found on the southern side of the Great Smoky Mountain
s of Western North Carolina off of Highlands Rd. The mall accommodates 26,000 square feet of antiques to meet everyone's needs. Come and enjoy the trains, tractors, automobiles and collectibles; a true connection to the past. You will also find some new items that will keep you in the present along the way.
