Interesting museum on horses. Extensive collection of trophies. Lots of carriages, buggies, sleighs, etc. History horses includes use as transportation, pleasure, work, and racing. Included in entrance fee to the Kentucky Horse Park.
Lots of interesting stuff about horses. I was a bit put off by the trek up a circular ramp to view things as we huffed and puffed our way up. We got about half way up and took the elevator down.
A couple of benches along the way would have been appreciated.
Really nice museum about horses. tickets are good for 2 days. I wish I had known, it would definitely take that long to see everything. The restaurant is currently closed. would recommend if in the area
This was a cool stop!!! I didn't think I would be that interested in horse stuff....but it was really cool to see the history of horses then we went out to the breeds show!!! I really enjoyed!!! If you need something to do I would check it out....I think it will surprise you!!!
Kentucky Horse Park is a great place to go and learn about horses, whether you are experienced already or have no prior experience at all. I have prior experience and enjoyed myself, and my friends have none and they loved it. They have scheduled events that repeat throughout the day, so timing is flexible too.
