LOCATION

The Brown County Barn Burner is located at 185 S Jefferson St, near the corner of Jefferson and Washington Streets. It’s a quiet corner of town, but still just a few easily walkable blocks from the heart of Nashville, Indiana and all it has to offer – including shopping, restaurants, art galleries and studios, coffee shops, and much more.
