The house that once echoed with the timeless voice of Conway Twitty — the home where he wrote songs, raised his children, and found peace away from the spotlight — is now at the center of a heartbreaking controversy. With news breaking that the Twitty family’s iconic Hendersonville, Tennessee home may be demolished for development, Conway’s daughter, Kathy Twitty, has stepped forward with an emotional plea to save the legacy her father left behind.
“This isn’t just a house,” Kathy said in a tearful interview. “It’s the heart of our family’s history. It’s where Dad was still just ‘Daddy’ to us — not a superstar, not a chart-topper. Just a man who loved his home and his music.”
The Hendersonville home, long known to fans as Twitty City, was once a vibrant gathering place — not only for Conway’s family, but also for fans who visited from around the world to experience a piece of country music history. It was a sanctuary of Southern charm, personal memories, and quiet moments that stood in stark contrast to the demanding life Conway lived on the road.
But now, due to development pressures and changing property ownership, the home is in danger of being torn down to make way for commercial expansion — a move that Kathy and many fans are calling an erasure of country music history.
“My father gave his entire life to country music,” Kathy said.
“And this house holds his spirit. You don’t tear down a legacy just to put up a parking lot.”
Kathy has begun working with preservationists and fans to launch a petition and awareness campaign aimed at protecting the home as a historical landmark. She hopes to rally support from the country music community, including artists who were inspired by her father’s legacy.
Fans across social media are joining the movement, using hashtags like #SaveTwittyHome and sharing personal stories of how Conway’s music — and the memory of Twitty City — touched their lives.
“We’re not asking for a museum,” Kathy added. “We’re asking for respect. For history. For the place my father poured his soul into.”
As bulldozers threaten the past, Conway Twitty’s daughter is standing in the present — to defend the future of her family’s legacy. And in doing so, she reminds the world that country music isn’t just something you listen to — it’s something you preserve, brick by brick, song by song, memory by memory.
