About Old Mulkey Meetinghouse State Historic Site

This Kentucky state historic site in Monroe County centers on the Old Mulkey Meetinghouse, a Baptist church dating from roughly the early 1800s. A cemetery sits beside the church. The property has been part of Kentucky's state park system since 1931, and its roughly 20 acres preserve the building and grounds for visitors interested in frontier religious history.
