Henderson on the Ohio River in Western Kentucky
Henderson sits on the southern bank of the Ohio River in Henderson County, directly across from Evansville, Indiana. The city was founded in 1797 by the Transylvania Company, the same land speculation venture that had earlier attempted to establish a colony in central Kentucky. Its riverfront location made it a center for tobacco trading and river commerce throughout the 19th century.
John James Audubon lived in Henderson from 1810 to 1819 and conducted much of his early bird study and artwork in the surrounding forests and river bottoms. The John James Audubon State Park north of town includes a museum housing a collection of his original prints and personal artifacts. The park's nature preserve covers more than 600 acres of forest and wetland along the Ohio River.
Modern Henderson's economy is linked to both its own industrial base and the Evansville metropolitan area across the river. Several manufacturing operations, including aluminum processing and agricultural equipment, operate in the county. The twin bridges connecting Henderson to Evansville carry significant daily commuter traffic, and many Henderson residents work on the Indiana side.
