About this listen

The facade of Christian Heigold's 19th Century home is all that remains from the living structure. Near the Ohio River east of Downtown Louisville, it tells a deep story of that time in America.

Similarly, German immigrant August Bloedner carved the oldest Civil War monument in America to honor his fallen fellow soldiers at Kentucky's Battle of Rowlett Station in 1861. It is kept safe from the elements at The Frazier History Museum.
