📜 Discover Kentucky's birthplace – In Danville! 🏛️

Step back in time and experience the birthplace of the Bluegrass State! Danville is where history was made — home to the signing of Kentucky’s very first constitution in 1792, making it the 15th state in the Union.

Wander through Constitution Square, where the spirit of independence lives on:
✨ Explore historic cabins and the site of the first U.S. post office west of the Alleghenies
✨ Visit the home of Dr. Ephraim McDowell, where the world’s first successful abdominal surgery took place in 1809
✨ Learn about the vibrant African American business district that once thrived right here

From rich heritage to groundbreaking firsts, Danville is more than a destination — it’s the origin of Kentucky itself.
