The Louisville Slugger Museum is just 5 miles from the Louisville Sleep Inn.
The Hillerich & Bradsby Company complex includes a 120-foot, 68,000-pound bat at the entrance. A 24,000-square-foot museum contains interactive displays, exhibits and a film highlighting the history of the company and baseball's greatest hitters.
Museum guests conclude their visit with a tour of the factory where the famous Louisville Slugger bats, originating back to 1884, are still made today.
It takes a special place to craft the Official Bat of Major League Baseball. Since 1884, Louisville Slugger has put prime bats in the hands of the greatest players of the game. A visit to the museum shows you how the sport has changed between then and now. One of the fun and interesting things to do while in Louisville, Kentucky.
