The Louisville Slugger Museum is both a museum and the factory where many wooden bats are manufactured. The museum features Babe Ruth's bat that he hit 20+ homers with as well as other historic bats. The factory tour shows both the old technology and new. While we were there, we saw major league practice bats being made.

My seven year old loved this tour, but my 3 and 5 yo's were a bit too young. Overall this is a great place to visit with school-aged children.
