From pioneer-days salt-making and iron-smelting to modern-day distribution/warehousing, printing, electronics repair, and manufacturing, Bullitt County has played an important role in Kentucky history. Perhaps more importantly, it has played an intimate role in the everyday lives of generations of good people. History is everywhere, because life is everywhere.

The new Bullitt County History Museum opened in October 2004. It is the first-ever museum for the entire Bullitt County area and, though small, is getting enthusiastic reviews. Housed in the county courthouse, it is staffed and operated by the Bullitt County Genealogical Society, which was established in 1988.

Ever-changing displays such as "Rivers, Roads, and Railroads," which expresses the importance of location and transportation to our history and future, along with other displays about Native Americans, rural electricity, Veteran's Day, and the American Civil War, teach the visitor about our heritage, our connection to the past.

Convenient handicap access is available from the east entrance of the Courthouse, near the Old Stone Jail. Our computers have access to the internet, and we have a microfilm reader/printer and a variety of microfilmed records including all Kentucky death certificates currently available on microfilm.
