What if the most important stop on your road trip isn't a landmark—but a story?

In this episode of the Roadtripzee Podcast, we pull off the road in Munfordville, Kentucky, to spend time with the Hart County Historical Society, where everyday moments, family memories, and forgotten details are carefully preserved and brought back to life.

We talk with Marcia Hayes, Secretary of the Hart County Historical Society, behind the archives about why local history matters, how artifacts and photographs connect generations, and what these stories reveal about the rhythms of life in Hart County—past and present. From quiet museum rooms to deep community roots, this episode shows how history lives far beyond textbooks.

If you love road trips with heart, small-town Kentucky, and stories that give places meaning, this is a stop worth making.
