A Little About Us...

   Located in the most southwestern point in Kentucky, Fulton County is a community rich in historic tradition and gracious southern living. At the highest vantage point in its county seat of Hickman is our courthouse, built in 1903 and remodeled in 1990-91 to ultra modern convenience. It has retained its outward Queen Anne and Dutch Colonial influence and is known to have the only known original operating Seth Thomas clock in the tower.

   The city of Hickman is laid out on six levels of hill overlooking the mighty Mississippi River. We are only eight miles from the Tennessee state line to the south and across the river from Missouri. The Hickman-Dorena, MO. Ferry offers year round passage across the River and is a real asset for both industry and tourism. The Hickman-Fulton County Riverport Authority provides shipment for a wide variety of agricultural grains, steel, petroleum coke, fertilizers and numerous other products, giving a broad industrial base for future growth to our economy.

   We have a school system, grades K-12, that is second to none with dedicated teachers and staff, Area Technology Center and a well rounded athletic program. We concur with our state motto that "Education Pays". We also are blessed with churches of practically every denomination. This is an important part of the life and culture of our people.

   Come and spend some time with us and we hope our hospitality will make you want to stay
