Kentucky’s Forgotten Private Institutions

This is a very brief visual look at some of Kentucky’s long-forgotten private hospitals, institutions, and sanitariums. Many of these institutions changed ownership and names and therefore some of these are the same buildings just with different names and owners.

Note: we will keep this post updated as we continue to find new additions.
