State Park Exhibits
Welcome to the 390 million-year-old shallow tropical sea, located 30° south of Earth’s equator. During the middle of the Devonian Period it covered what is now the Falls of the Ohio State Park and much of the eastern United States. Discover the fascinating ancient creatures whose fossil remains can be seen and touched on the fossil beds today.
Exhibits at the Interpretive Center
Featured are award-winning immersive exhibits showing a 14-minute orientation film about the long and exciting history at the Falls of the Ohio.
The Great Blue Heron Mascot, Just for Kids
For the Early Learners. Each of the four exhibits areas features a Great Blue Heron icon directing the youngest learners – children Pre-K to 2nd grade – into a hands-on exhibit for their age and ability. Look for fossil rubbings, a mammoth puzzle, a historical discovery truck and a nature imagination area. The Great Blue Heron was chosen as the icon for its majestic grace and for its year-round presence at the Falls of the Ohio.
