Visit the Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory

The popular Louisville Slugger baseball bat was first manufactured in Louisville in 1884, and it is still manufactured at the site's active factory today. Baseball fans travel from all over the country to visit this factory tour and museum dedicated to the love of the game. There are memorabilia galleries, including a Babe Ruth bat, as well as rotating exhibits, such as "The Best Black Baseball Team You've Never Heard Of", to keep things interesting.

General admission is less than $20 (and children under the age of five are free) and includes a factory tour as well as a mini bat keepsake. Meanwhile, $299 gets you an exclusive All-Star Experience pass that grants access to restricted areas of the factory floor, the bat vault, the archive room containing the museum's most prized artifacts, and a personalized bat. Take a picture with it outside, next to Louisville's iconic Big Bat, the world's largest at 120 feet tall.
