U.S. Grant Trail

The Confluence Segment of the U.S. Grant Trail is a joint project of communities in Missouri and Kentucky to showcase Civil War sites and other heritage sites that chronicle the life and times of America's eighteenth president. From Hannibal, Missouri to Paducah, Kentucky, these are the communities and sites that witnessed Ulysses Grant's rise to fame in 1861.

The U.S. Grant Trail passes through Paducah, citing Nathan Bedford Forrest's Headquarters, the Tilghman House and Civil War Museum, the William Clark Market House Museum, Grant's Landing Site and Fort Anderson Park as stops along the trail.
