Even before I became a freshman student at WKU, I used to visit the Kentucky Museum as we lived just a short ways away on the Old Morgantown Road.

Exhibits and artifacts are all related to the history and natives of bowling green. Including the civil war, Duncan Hines, and a series of home items spanning the stylistic eras of modern history. Admission was free.

Wonderful museum and the building also houses the WKU libraries special collections department including the Kentucky Library, WKU Archives, and Manuscripts. The museum is perfect for an interesting way to spend your day, and the special collections has a lot of great reference materials for any research concerning Kentucky or WKU!

Had a great time and enjoyed all of the exhibits. We will be going back again.

It is closed due to the WKU shut down due to Covid

High quality exhibits with some truly remarkable items on display, this is one of BGKYs top attractions for anyone interested in the culture and heritage of Kentucky! Great activity kit for kids, too!

First time here. It would have been better if I had not brought my kids, who are under 5. I want to go back by myself.

The museum is free and the staff is friendly. We loved seeing and reading about all the history here in Kentucky and learning about all the cultures here and how they began. I recommend coming here atleast once because theres learning here for everyone.

Very rude shows that they are open but arent at all but yet as of today they can hold a private event but the public is not.allowed

Such a neat stop during our visit to Bowling Green. Check ahead to see what traveling exhibit might be available if youre in the area. BG Visitors Bureau should have pamphlets with coupons to a number of places including the museum. Staff was super friendly and knowledgeable.

Excellent display of traditional and nouveau art by students and locals.

This was very interesting. Learned a lot about Kentuckys history.
