walking tours wind through the Village, where costumed interpreters
chronicle Shaker life, artisans work at 19th century trades, and historic
farming and musical performances bring the
past to life. Lively special events and programs

About Harrodsburg
H
Annual Festivals/Events
Harrodsburg was named for Captain James Harrod (1742-92), a
native of Pennsylvania who learned of Kentucky—then part of
Virginia—through Daniel Boone. Leading a party of 32 men in
1774, he founded Fort Harrod, now Harrodsburg, on June 16 of that
year. Importantly, Harrodsburg historically ranks as Kentucky’s
oldest town, as well as the first permanent settlement west of the
Allegheny Mountains.
