Rent a Cabin and Visit the
Salt and Pepper Museum
A little salt and
pepper on your meal? What a combination for a wonderful
meal on the town. Rent one of our
Gatlinburg cabin rentals in Gatlinburg TN and visit the highly
acclaimed Salt ‘n’ Pepper Museum. Being
located in Gatlinburg Tennessee, this museum is sure to
add some flavor to your vacation. It’s
a one of a kind museum, and the only salt and pepper
museum on earth! The new location in Gatlinburg, which is a lot bigger,
is just
off downtown and near a trolly stop. It’s accessible to
all, and enjoyable for the whole family. There is a big
parking lot that also has a winery and a jelly store.
The museum is above the Flapjacks Pancake House, so eat
up before you go visit the museum. It is open in the
summer from 10:00 a.m. till 6:00 p.m. and the winter
from 10:00 a.m. till 5:00 p.m. Admission is free, but
donations are accepted.
The owners of the wondrous museum, the Ludden’s, never
thought they would eventually end up with thousands of
salt and pepper shakers while just searching for just
one set. Their story is an interesting one, as they
didn’t have a peppermill at home, so they went looking
for one. After visiting a few flea markets, they became
fascinated with salt and pepper sets. They bought, and
bought, and bought some more. Finally, they purchased a
total of 17,000 salt and pepper shakers from Texas to
East Tennessee, where they opened the museum in
Gatlinburg. The shakers come from a variety of
materials, ranging from glass, ceramics, wood, walnut
shells, antlers, bones, sea shells, metal, crystal, and
to just about any material you can imagine.
They have the largest pepper mill ever made, which
accompanies the smallest salt and pepper shakers as
well. If you have any questions, please call the museum
at (888) 778-1802.
