History

Dating back to the mid-1800s Cook's United Methodist Church is one of the oldest churches in Mt. Juliet

Mt. Juliet was formed in 1835 and incorporated as a city in 1972.[1][2] The most widely accepted theory regarding the naming of the town is that it is named for the Mount Juliet Estate, a manor house in County Kilkenny, Ireland. It is the only U.S. city with this name.[10]

In the early morning hours of March 3, 2020, Mt. Juliet was struck by an EF3 tornado that destroyed hundreds of homes, along with West Wilson Middle School and Stoner Creek Elementary. Five people were killed by the tornado, three of which were in Mt. Juliet.[11]

Mt. Juliet is located at 36°12'10" North, 86°30'49" West (36.202654, -86.513583).[12]

The total area is 1.99% water. Recent annexations along the east side of South Rutland Road as well as a land swap with the City of Lebanon for the Bel Air at Beckwith project (southeast quadrant of I-40/Beckwith Road interchange) have increased the city's geographical area to approximately 21.78 square miles (56.4 km2).

Mt. Juliet is located between Old Hickory Lake to its north and Percy Priest Lake to its south, both of which are man-made reservoirs.
