More history in Frankfort
Floral Clock at the State Capitol
The working clock face planted with thousands of flowers behind the Capitol, set over a pool where people toss coins. Google currently lists the Capitol building itself as temporarily closed, but the grounds and the clock are open to walk.
Old State Capitol
The 1830 Greek Revival capitol in the middle of downtown, run by the Kentucky Historical Society. Look for the stone staircase that holds itself up with no center support.
Thomas D. Clark Center for Kentucky History
The Kentucky Historical Society's main museum and research library, a short walk from the Old Capitol. A good rainy-day stop, and the library is a real resource if you are tracing family history.
