Monteagle Sunday School Assembly

MSSA differed from other Chautauquas and is significant is that it was ecumenical from the beginning. Known as the Chautauqua of the South, it has conducted annual assemblies for religious and educational programs without interruption since 1883. In 1982, MSSA was placed in the National Register of Historic Places by the United States Department of the Interior. It features outstanding and unusual Victorian and early 20th century cottage architecture on a campus of 354 acres containing more than 160 cottages and 15 public buildings.

Marker is at the intersection of Assembly Avenue (Tennessee Route 41-a) and College Street, on the right when traveling north on Assembly Avenue.
