About Harrogate, Tennessee

Harrogate became a city in 1993. With a population of 4389, it's the largest city in Claiborne County. Harrogate is home to Lincoln Memorial University. On the campus of LMU you will find the Lincoln Museum. The museum houses one of the largest Lincoln Collections in the World.

The area has been known as Harrogate since the 1800's but it wasn't until 1993 that Harrogate was officially declared a city. Dr. George Day was elected the city's first Mayor. When first incorporated the population was approximately 2700 but as new land was annexed the city grew. The 2010 U S Census shows the total population at 4,389. Along with the growth came street lights, traffic lights and a new City Park. The city's growth has brought new businesses to the area. With the addition of the Harrogate Industrial Park, the city hopes to bring in even more businesses.
