Maysville, River port city in Mason County, Kentucky.
The city extends along the Ohio River at an elevation of 165 meters, featuring two major bridges connecting Kentucky to Ohio.
Frontiersmen Simon Kenton and Daniel Boone established the settlement in 1775, which later developed into a significant tobacco trading port.
The Russell Theatre, which premiered Rosemary Clooney's first film in 1953, represents the city's entertainment heritage through ongoing restoration efforts.
Maysville provides multiple transportation options including water, rail, air services, and extensive highway systems connecting north-south and east-west routes.
Large murals painted on the downtown floodwall since 1998 illustrate local history, from Native American bison hunts to important historical events.
