More Information
Details: My Old Kentucky Home State Park honors the home that was the symbol of Stephen Foster's most endearing song, the stately mansion on the Rowan estate, Federal Hill. Its builder, Judge John Rowan, was a man of great distinction, serving both on the Kentucky Court of Appeals and in the U.S. Senate. It was in 1852 that Stephen Foster visited his cousins, the Rowans, and wrote the ballad My Old Kentucky Home. The home's decor, including rare and beautiful furnishings, is much as it was when Foster was a guest here. Guides in antebellum costumes lead tours through the home, extending gracious hospitality reminiscent of the leisurely South. <br><br><b>Directions:</b>&nbsp;&nbsp;My Old Kentucky Home State Park is located in Bardstown on US 150.
