I had the opportunity of visiting beautiful Cadiz, KY, a few weeks ago. This is the seat of Trigg County and boasts of a tremendous amount of art. Some of it can be seen on a picturesque mural, but a great deal of it can be seen in little pigs all around town. But wait, I’m not talking about living pigs, rather, little pig monuments scattered all throughout town. There’s also no shortage of antique shops, there’s a radio station, and of course City Hall. I’ve included a few photos for you to enjoy down below. There’s also a great video shot in the city that run about seventeen minutes in duration.
The city has a rich history going back to the early 1800’s. It played a role during the U.S. Civil War. It was used by both the Union and Confederate forces. Today, its population sits at around 2,700 residents, keeping its small town feel. As is often the case with my travels, it all starts with my first trip and plans are soon underway for a follow-up. Since filming, I’ve already learned several things about the community, especially spots I didn’t film. If you’re from Cadiz, live there, or know about the community, please leave a comment on the video. For now, I leave you with my video and several photos.
