There is a hidden speakeasy in Tennessee tucked away in a bank vault. Sounds intriguing, right? I am a big fan of history and the Prohibition Era has some big roots in the Volunteer State. Harkening back to the early 1900s, you have these speakeasies that lure you in with the promise of adventure. So bring along your date and travel through to the sophisticated underground of The Vault in Knoxville, Tennessee. 

During Prohibition, the selling of alcohol became illegal, but that didn’t stop the drink from drying up. People got clever about where they gathered to quench their thirst, and so speakeasies became a popular underground way to partake in the forbidden pastime.
