The Old Mulkey Meetinghouse State Historic Site is a state park and historic site in Tompkinsville, Kentucky. It is home to the oldest freestanding log meeting house in all of Kentucky.

Built in 1804, the Old Mulkey Meeting House was originally a house of worship for the Mill Creek Baptist Church. It is noted for being a great representation of the pioneer era and the great religious revivals that took place in the early 19th century. The structure was established by a small group of pioneer Baptists that moved to the area from the Carolinas. It was named after John Mulkey, the first preacher, according to the records.

The Old Mulkey Meetinghouse State Historic Site is also home to the burial site of several noted pioneers and soldiers.
