Colonel Eli Lilly Civil War Museum

One Monument Circle, Indianapolis, IN 46204 | view on map
317-232-7615
http://www.in.gov/iwm/2335.htm

The monument will be closed beginning at 5 p.m., Sunday, March 13 for repairs and will reopen November 2011. Located in the lower level of The Soldiers and Sailors Monument in the center of downtown Indianapolis this 9,000-square-foot exhibit explores the effects of the civil war on the people of Indiana. A historic and unique gallery space posed challenges for the design and production that in turn enhanced the visitor experience. Large rear projected local re-enactment video engages the visitor in real war situations.


Hours and Costs

Open Wed.-Sat., 10:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Closed Mon.-Tues. and major holidays.
