Year-round the League offers unique opportunites to share in the rich historical and cultural heritage of the Louisville mtropolitan area (Jefferson County, Kentucky; and, Floyd and Clark Counties of Indiana). Your personal appreciation of Louisville and its environs is foremost in planning LHL activities.
Our headquarters is at the Peterson-Dumesnil House, 301 S. Peterson Avenue, in Crescent Hill. (Pictured at left) For more information on the 'P D House', click on this website: www.PetersonDumesnil.org To contact the League, email us at LouHist@Hotmail.com |
