Located at Mile 537.6 on the Ohio River,the "Life on the Ohio" River History Museum showcases a rare and diverse collection of documents and artifacts depicting life and work along the river from the early flatboats and keel boats to the rise and fall of the steamboat era.
A fine collection of steamboat models by Harold Patterson serves to tell of his time as an actor on the Bryant Showboats. Stand behind the Robert T. Graham pilot's wheel as if coming into the Vevay landing.
