Amy Hess gives us a tour of downtown Somerset, where a $1 million renovation of Fountain Square has been completed. On hand for the official dedication of Fountain Square, Amy also discovers the shops, restaurants, and other attractions that make this downtown a pleasure for townsfolk and visitors alike.
This historic downtown was first settled in 1798 and named after Somerset County in New Jersey, the original home of the first settlers. The town is committed to restoring and maintaining its historic buildings. Fountain Square remains the center of town, and a bronze statue of favorite son John Sherman Cooper stands on the square.
Its proximity to Lake Cumberland means Somerset draws thousands of tourists annually. The town is also home to the popular classic car show Somernites Cruise from April through October, as well as the Master Musicians Festival in July.
