We've always heard there were secret tunnels underground Nashville. So we asked for callers to tell us of the ones they knew about. And for this blog we found evidence of some more. Some good work by Curious Nashville led to some of the info here. Here's what we learned. They're are little known tunnels under Vanderbilt University

Printers Alley

West End Middle School

Hume Fogg school

possibly a cadaver tunnel

Opryland Hotel Let's start there at our biggest hotel with an eyewitness account.

Nashville school tunnels. Then we heard about tunnels under Nashville schools downtown. West End Middle and historic Hume Fogg on Broadway.

A historical Hume Fogg website even tells us there's one time a year when you cango in it. And that's coming soon. The building consists of five floors including the basement,

which has several tunnels leading to various places around downtown Nashville; however, they are currently boarded off and inaccessible, except during Ghost Tours held every October by the school's Student Government Association

The Cadevor Tunnel.

This is the rumored tunnel used to transport dead bodies between Nashville General Hospital and a medical school that existed nearby. This theory is not supported by this historical map which only seems to show some possible connecting pipes.

Printers Alley. We also heard about a tunnel that starts at Printers Alley and ends at the Cumberland river. The theories about this one range from smuggling booze during prohibition to a passage for the Underground Railroad used by slaves to escape north. Here's video.

Tunnels under Vandy. These are not secret tunnels (pictured in the map below) and they are used for utilities and such today. There are rumors that the tunnels lead to a secret room only accessible to the Chancellor.

This show even did some "digging" (sorry, I'll let myself out) around in the Vandy tunnels.
