    The Barrel - 08.30.25 Located on 4th & Main streets

    The Barrel

    4.5(4 reviews)
    0.2 miWest Main, Downtown

    Public Art [Louisville KY]…read more This public art can be located in the center of Louisville's Bourbon District. The Bourbon District is a gathering space for locals and visitors and is a walkable urban experience for anyone looking for a taste of Kentucky. The Barrel is meant to be walked through (which I did)... a worthy iG insta photo-op in Downtown Louisville. Barrel on Main has five hoops with rings made of a type of corrosion resistant steel and black powder coated aluminum, the giant art installation is almost nine times the size of a typical 53-gallon barrel and was inspired by those of actual oak barrels used to store and age Kentucky's local spirits. Next to the Barrel is an interpretive sign with a little history of why this Whiskey Row was called the Bourbon District. Parking may be challenging to find in this area. Just fun to see some of Louisville's public arts. Review #3903

At first glance it looks like some weird, random public art piece, but when you step back, you realize they are the hoops of a bourbon barrel! Appropriately, it's titled "The Barrel" and it is located in the center of the Bourbon District. A very cool piece of art that's a popular spot for photos.

    Lincoln Memorial at Waterfront Park [Louisville KY]…read more The memorial, dedicated to the country's famous 16th president, is located at the Waterfront Park at a city park by the Ohio River. It has sculptural parts including a larger-than-life statue of Abraham Lincoln, four artistic expression sculptures, and Abraham Lincoln's own words engraved with four famous quotes on a stone amphitheater to express his lifelong ties to Kentucky. The memorial is a simple moving tribute very nicely done. It is a free attraction set against the scenic Ohio River. We were there around 7:45p as the sun was setting behind the Interstate 65 across the Ohio River. Review #3927

Created by sculptor Ed Hamilton, the memorial was completed in 2009. The memorial is comprised of a 12 foot tall sculpture of Abraham Lincoln sitting on a rock beside his top hat, in front of steps engraved with various quotations from Lincoln's speeches: "I, too, am a Kentuckian"; "A house divided against itself cannot stand"; "With malice toward none, with charity for all"; and "As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master." There are also four bas-relief panels depicting various periods in Lincoln's life, from childhood to slavery and emancipation. An interesting and aesthetic memorial.

    What a wacky and eclectic place the Frazier Kentucky History Museum is. But, I guess, so is the…read morestate of Kentucky. It's got a varied history. This museum gives visitors several slices of that history, from bourbon and whiskey to racing to the Civil War and the tobacco industry. One of my favorite permanent exhibits is on the second floor. It's a room dedicated to Kentucky bourbon and whiskey called the Bourbon Bottle Hall. It's just a bunch of bottles of whiskey and bourbon on backlit white shelves, but it feels supernatural to step into the room and be surrounded by all of the different bottles. You got everything from your Elijah Craigs to your Pappy Van Winkles. What else? There were Kentucky sports mascot costumes on display, a life-sized wax statue of Colonel Sanders holding a bucket of his Kentucky Fried Chicken with its 11 herbs and spices, a little play area for children, a display of German toy soldiers, a display of costumes made by local students, and lots of other interesting things to look at. The Frazier is good for all ages, but it's mostly a "looking" museum, so there aren't too many interactive things to touch, which is why it might not hold the attention of really young kids. My tween and teenagers liked it, but they were done within about 30 minutes. It's a small museum, but I think it has a lot of cool stuff in it and definitely worth a visit.

I realized im old because i didn't expect the 00's to be antique now... anyway, there were such amazing gowns and simple ones too. I liked the display of who wore the gown. There were Kentucky natives and famous to english and Indian royalty. I enjoyed the wall of roses to propose to someone one! The miniatures exhibits are always neat to look at and the video was cool! Ill come back again!
