HISTORIC HENDERSON CARNEGIE PUBLIC LIBRARY In 1894, Lila Ripley Barnwell donated some books to the township, convincing the commissioners to give the “Library Club” a room in the City Hall. After years of slowly expanding and eventually relocating, Andrew Carnegie invested in the funding for a brand-new library in 1908. The community donated their books and slowly they filled the new building until they finally opened their doors in 1914 with 600 books total.
JOHN JAMES AUDUBON STATE PARK & MUSEUM On October 3, 1934, the Commonwealth of Kentucky dedicated the John James Audubon State Park and years later provided money to create the addition of a museum to the grounds. Today, the park is filled with beautiful and interesting stops for everyone. Bird watchers have some of the best views of native bird species from the wooded areas and benches of the park. Trails wrap around the park with incredible views and a nice walk can be enjoyed with the comfort of benches placed along the paths.
AUDUBON MILL PARK This scenic park, located right off the Ohio River, offers the perfect opportunity for guests who wish to spend the day enjoying and exploring the beauty of Kentucky. The park features a beautifully paved trail, perfect for a stroll down the river. There are plenty of spots to take a rest on the benches or to relax and soak in the beauty of the outdoors. The park is used annually to hold a series of festivals, concerts and events and is a frequent destination for blue grass and local artists to vocalize their talents to the community and visitors.
