How to Use This Wartburg, Tennessee Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Wartburg, Tennessee. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Tennessee or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Wartburg.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Wartburg reveals itself through a landscape of quiet, rugged severity where the earth rises in broken, wooded folds toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Cumberland Mountains. It lies 2.8 miles east of Morgan, TN (from Morgan, TN: bearing 84°T), and is situated 18.7 miles north of Roane. The air here holds the damp, mineral scent of the nearby Emory River, which carves a path through the sandstone bluffs just a mile from the center. Beyond the immediate clearing, the terrain deepens into the dense, shadowed timber of the Morgan State Forest, while the nearby expanse of the Catoosa Wildlife Management Area preserves a wilder, more ancient character for the land. Sunlight often struggles to penetrate the deep ravines, casting long, bruised shadows across Happy Hollow that linger well into the afternoon, lending the valley a stillness that feels heavy with the weight of geological time.

Wartburg carries the distinct, austere marks of its nineteenth-century origins, established by settlers whose influence remains etched into the local architecture and the measured, deliberate pace of daily life. The economy, once tethered to the extraction of coal and the labor of the timber trade, now functions with a subdued, modern resilience that honors the grit of its founders. Travelers occasionally venture toward the cascading spray of Jacks Rock Falls, yet the social pulse remains centered on the quiet industry of the courthouse square and the enduring connections of those who call the place home. Even the distant, shimmering surface of Dead Mans Pond serves as a silent, inland anchor for a populace that finds its satisfaction in the rhythm of the changing seasons and the persistent, quiet endurance of the Appalachian interior.

About This Wartburg Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Wartburg, Tennessee. Coordinates: 36.103789, -84.585981. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Wartburg includes the ZIP code (37887), telephone area code (865), county seat of Morgan County (Wartburg), and school district assignment (Morgan County School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
