Where is the Ark Encounter attraction, a Noah’s Ark replica, located?

Ark Encounter, a Noah’s Ark replica attraction, is located in Williamstown, Kentucky.

Ark Encounter is a Christian theme park that opened in 2016 near Williamstown in Grant County, Kentucky. Its centerpiece is a large wooden Ark built according to dimensions based on the Genesis account: 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high. The attraction interprets the biblical Flood story through exhibits, displays, and presentations.

The site was developed by Answers in Genesis, the organization associated with the Creation Museum in nearby Petersburg, Kentucky. Its location places it in the Cincinnati metropolitan region, roughly between Cincinnati and Lexington. The attraction has become a prominent example of religious tourism and literalist biblical interpretation in the United States.

Ark Encounter is a modern replica and visitor attraction, not an archaeological discovery of an ancient vessel. Its dimensions are based on the biblical text, while its construction materials, internal exhibits, and educational presentation reflect contemporary design and engineering.
