Famous bats, baseball history, and a giant bat outside for photos.

Frazier Museum

Learn all about Kentucky - from Native America Tribes, to Bourbon, to good ol' Colonel Sanders.

Louisville Waterfront Park

Easy riverfront strolls with skyline views just minutes from The Galt House. Be sure to look for the Belle of Louisville - one of the last remaining, original steamboats still in operation in the United States.

Big Four Bridge

Just a short walk from The Galt House, the Big Four Bridge was the original traffic bridge from Louisville to IN, crossing the Ohio River. When the new toll bridge was built, the original bridge was turned into a pedestrian walkway.

Cherokee Park

Designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, who designed Central Park in NYC, the trails in Cherokee Park make you forget your right in the middle of the city. Be sure to stop by Jillian's favorite coffee shop - Fante's!
