Coal Miner’s Daughter Museum

You have heard the cliché of a “Rags to Riches” story. Loretta Lynn’s Coal Miner’s Daughter Museum allows visitors to see that up-close in person! Her legendary life and career are preserved at her Ranch for all to see in the 18,000 square feet complex she built and completed in 2001.

Loretta Lynn is a “hoarder” because anyone who grew up in the hills of Eastern Kentucky saved everything. We at her Ranch and the museum, are so thankful she is! The museum collection would not be possible if she had not kept everything of her life. The museum, as visitors walk through, tells a long, vast story of her life, her family, and her amazing career. Visitors will experience her legendary life, and see that Loretta Lynn is such a huge fan of everyone in entertainment and even in our American political fields with the amazing collection she has amassed from her great, close friends!

Come see, experience, and live her life through her eyes! Even more precious is that Loretta welcomes her visitors to take photos inside for their own collection!

Doll & Fan Museum

Located in the Grist Mill, Loretta’s Fan & Doll Museum hosts a vast array of Dolls and Gifts sent to Loretta from her Loving and Devoted Fans over the course of her six-decade career.

For the love of her fans Loretta Lynn wanted to create a special museum dedicated to her fans to showcase some of the amazing gifts they have given her throughout her long iconic career! This special museum was installed in her historic Grist Mill, which was once her original museum she and husband Mooney built in 1976. In 2001, when she built her new museum, this historic area became her “Doll and Fan Museum”. What is so special of Loretta is that she built this for her fans, and it remains a free attraction at her Ranch.

Butcher Holler Home Replica

An exact replica of her Butcher Holler Home was built on her ranch so that visitors can tour and see firsthand how this American Icon grew up to become the woman she is! Meticulously designed and built from personal studies of the original home in Eastern Kentucky, this house was created to be as Loretta lived in it before she married Mooney Lynn. The original home still stands outside of Van Lear, Kentucky and continues to be maintained by the Webb Family, though, the original home has had upgrades through the years, such as electricity! Loretta Lynn wanted this replica of her home built as when she lived in it in those early years.
