Farragut is a suburban town located in Knox and Loudon counties in the State of Tennessee, United States. The town’s population was 23,506 at the 2020 census. It is included in the Knoxville Metropolitan Area. The town is named in tribute of Hispanic American and Union Admiral David Farragut, who was born just east of Farragut at Campbell’s Station in 1801, and fought in the American Civil War.

The area was originally known as Campbell’s Station after a fort and stage coach station erected by Captain David Campbell (1753–1832) in 1787. The brick Campbell’s Station Inn was built in 1810 and still stands upon Kingston Pike within sight of the Farragut Town Hall. The Civil War Battle of Campbell’s Station was fought there on November 16, 1863.

The historic unincorporated village of Concord (listed on the National Register of Historic Places) was founded in 1854 just east of what would become the eastern boundary of Farragut. Concord is located upon the main rail extraction to Atlanta and main channel of the Tennessee River, and was an important transloading center for the Tennessee marble industry in the late 19th century. Picturesque buildings and antebellum homes sit along the river, as skillfully as several definitely old churches.

The native Farragut High School was built by the community in 1904, and moved to its current location in 1976. Some parts of Farragut are zoned for Hardin Valley Academy in the adjacent to suburb of Hardin Valley, built in 2008.
