Frankfort, KY 40601
Kentucky has a rich military history. That history is both preserved and explained at the Kentucky Military History Museum. The State Arsenal for more than 100 years and a Civil War-era munitions factory, this Gothic Revival style building houses the exhibits “Kentucky Military Treasures” and “George M. Chinn: Sights Set on Innovation,” and 19th-century war records (available for use by appointment). The Kentucky Historical Society operates the museum with the Kentucky Department for Military Affairs.
