SO MUCH TO SEE AND DO!

With attractions that honor our nation’s veterans and the nearly 3,000 people who lost their lives on 9/11, as well as a 26-acre nature preserve, and Hardin County’s first and only bourbon distillery since prohibition, Radcliff has something for everyone. 

Centrally located in the heart of the Bluegrass State, Radcliff, Kentucky is a diverse community with abundant natural and cultural resources. Thousands of people visit the area each year to appreciate its rich military history and southern charm.

In 2018, Radcliff was designated as the Knife Capital of Kentucky, thanks to Red Hill Cutlery and its Kentucky Museum of American Pocketknives. The museum consists mostly of the owner’s massive personal collection of pocketknives and knife boxes.
