 You should schedule a day at Bardstown. IMHO one of the best ACW museums of the western theater for original items displayed as groupings by who owned the items. I was not impressed with the women of the ACW museum but have heard that it has improved considerably.

You may also want to catch the Steven Foster My old Kentucky home for a tour of a well done Kentucky mansion, and a musical featuring his songs.

Perryville is a well preserved state owned field. It also has a nice small museum which focuses on recollections of  local residents prior to and following the battle.

The Lincoln's Birth site and Knob Creek farm are also very close to Bards town.
