Description
Dedicated exclusively to the oldest town in Kentucky, Postcard History Series: Harrodsburg and Mercer County presents what Fort Harrod seemed like when it used to be established in 1775. High Bridge, spanning the Kentucky River between Mercer and Jessamine Counties and only miles from Shakertown, used to be an engineering wonder of its age. As the very best railroad bridge on this planet on the time, it used to be the topic of hundreds of postcards. Summer visitors came from everywhere the rustic to enjoy Harrodsburg’s Graham Springs Resort, referred to as the “Saratoga of the West.” Views of nearby Dix Dam and Herrington Lake were made into postcards for vacationers to send to their family and friends.
