As the National Museum of Funeral History (415 Barren Springs Drive) celebrates its 25th anniversary this year, locals can check out one particular exhibit before it drives off: the Batmobile.
The full-scale replica of the 1966 Batmobile honors George Barris, who was known as the "King of Kustomizers" for his work on famous Hollywood cars.
Not only was he the creator behind the Batmobile, he also created the Beverly Hillbillies' jalopy, the Munster Koach and many KITTs for Knight Rider.
The iconic Batmobile was created for the Adam West show that first aired in 1966 on ABC. In 2013, a Batmobile built by Barris himself was auctioned off in 2013, with the final bidder offering $4.2 million for the vehicle.
The exhibit also features a replica of the casket that Barris was buried in.
Fans will still have a few weeks to catch the Batmobile before it leaves the museum on December 31, 2017.
The National Museum of Funeral History is open Monday to Friday, 10am-4pm; Saturday, 10am-5pm; and Sunday, 12-5pm.
