Kentucky - Walking Tour

Chapline Building

The Chapline Building houses the Historical Museum of Hart County, the Society's extensive collection of historic objects, images, books, maps and papers relating to the history of Hart County.

Since the destruction of the county courthouse by fire in 1928, the Historical Museum has become the main source for information about the early denizens of the county. In addition to the Museum, the Chapline Building is also a repository for genealogical research.

Over the 100 year history, this building has been the home of a bakery, a dry-goods store, a newspaper office, and a telephone exchange. The building was renovated in 2002-2003.

The museum hours are:
Tuesday - Friday 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Saturday 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
