The artistry of the various sculptures and reliefs is amazing. Look closely into every detail, or just sit on the steps with a cup of coffee and enjoy. A great downtown spot for a quick outdoor meeting or people watching.
The building was just gorg- really something to see. The exterior of the building is nice but the inside is from a different era and has been maintained perfectly. A must see.
This is a nice afternoon walk. I did it in the afternoon in January, it was sunny & brisk. Make sure you go all the way down to the USS Indianapolis memorial. Very moving.
place to visit and a sad account of our wars to date i am not a big fan of war it has no friend but the undertaker and is nothing but a widowmaker
It's really deceptive looking at the building from the outside, you would never guess just how much is inside. Looking at the building from the outside, you see a pretty impressive monument, but inside you find one of the most impressive museums of American history outside of the Smithsonian.I've been to many museums of American history, the Indiana War Memorial is one of the most impressive collections of not just war artifacts, but history in general, I have seen outside of the Smithsonian in Washington, DC.
The Indiana War Memorial is an awe inspiring facility. It took my breath away when I walked into the Memorial Room.
Large museum with a lot of exhibits and artifacts. Most areas are well laid out and informative. Some exhibits did a poor job on mannequins. Overall, the exhibits were great with a lot of history and very informative. Easily spend several hours touring. Building interior is very beautiful. All for a great price (free)!
It was calm enough and temperate enough to walk around the memorial. Several interesting tribute statutes, well worth seeing. You'll really have to walk to get the full effect.
Great place to walk around and visit anytime of the year. Amazing monuments to share with friends and family in Downtown Indianapolis. Also a great place to view the July 4th fireworks from.
It was a little difficult to locate and you needed to walk a bit to get to it, but it was worth the effort. Very small memorial, but interesting.
