Franklin House
  With your See Tasmania Smartvisit Card, you will receive FREE Entry to Franklin House.

On the outskirts of Launceston is Franklin House. Built in 1838 for an early Launceston brewer and innkeeper, Mr Britton Jones, it soon became the Classical and Commercial school. The school enjoyed an enviable reputation in the north of the colony for more than 20
years, educating the sons of many prominent citizens.

Outstanding features include the joinery of NSW cedar, an original kitchen, clocks, fine china and a collection of fine English furniture with a number of colonial pieces. The school room is also a special feature of the house.

Franklin House is just one of over 60 attractions that make up the sightseeing pass known as the See Tasmania Smartvisit Card. This smartcard allows you entry and special discounted offers to this attraction and many more.
