Louisville Slugger Museum - (502) 588-7228

The Slugger Museum is one of the few uniquely Louisville attractions that about a truly world-famous item; namely, the LOUISVILLE SLUGGER!!! The Museum is eye-catching from the get-go with an enormous bat outside the museum. Along with the nostalgia of the Louisville Slugger, the Louisville Science Center/IMAX, Main Street, and the Waterfront are all within walking distance of the Museum. This would be my suggestion for the best of distinctively Louisville Family Outings!!!

This is one of the greatest museums. Not only is it fun for kids, it's also great for adults. Home of the World's Largest Baseball Bat!

While today's headines talk about baseball using words such as steroids and labor disputes, the Slugger Museum is a chance to view baseball in a simpler, more enjoyable perspective.

Make sure you start with the brief movie, which then takes you directly into the museum as the screen rises after the film (nice touch).

While the exhibits are enjoyable and educational, the part that really makes it worthwhile is the tour of the factory itself. This is no concocted display, this is the real thing. You are walked through the factory and view the entire manufacturing process at a safe distance. And when you leave, you get to take a minature Slugger bat with you.

My only complaint was that the big bat in front was being renovated while we were there, so all of my photos will show it being held by a crane.

This was a great place to visit. You get a mini bat as a souvenier for taking the tour, but before the tour, order a customized bat with favorite color, size, etc. and it's ready in 20 min! Gift shop is cool too. Just look for the MEGA bat outside.

I haven't lived here in Louisville very long, but my parents were visiting from Florida and wanted to go to the museum. I do like baseball, I don't know very much, but I enjoy watching it. The only thing that bothered me about the tour was the no pictures policy. They said there was another baseball bat manufacturer in St. Louis and they didn't want pictures leaking out... Well... couldn't someone who used to work at the factory or someone who took the tour just give this information out? Didn't make too much sense to me. I did enjoy the tour, the tour guide was very friendly and had a sense of humor. I enjoyed my free little baseball bat and the gift shop was nice. Overall, I do recommend it if you're from Louisville or not. The price was worth it.
