Top 7 Government Buildings in Indiana, United States

July 22, 2021 Emerita Lamoureux

With beaches, boating, and salmon fishing in Michigan City and Gary bordering Lake Michigan, there is more to Indiana than might appear at first glance. The agricultural heartland even has cross country skiing and snowmobiling to go with the Cornball Express. Southwest Indiana near Evansville is renowned for the well-preserved Native American Angel Mounds State Historic Site. The largest city and state capital is famous worldwide for its Indianapolis 500 race. Even locals living in the suburbs often overlook the Indianapolis Museum of Art, Eiteljorg Museum, NCAA Hall of Champions, the old Union Station museum cluster, and downtown Canal Walk, to name but a few landmarks. South Bend is synonymous with the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame.

Forested Nashville’s art colony fame dates to the early 1900s when Impressionist Theodore Clement Steele overwintered in The House of the Singing Winds. It is now the T.C. Steele State Historic Site. View paintings and sculpture at the I.M. Pei-designed Indiana University Museum of Art. Attend an IU sports event or an opera, ballet, concert, or theater performance. Treat the family to The Little Nashville Opry or The Bill Monroe Bluegrass Park. For healing mineral springs, head south to Orange County, Indiana’s spa resort center.

Enjoy golf, fishing, boating, cross country skiing, snowmobiling, and ice skating in the nation’s agricultural heartland. Monticello and Rensselaer are west of Logansport and north of Lafayette. Take the family on the Cornball Express and Hoosier Hurricane at the Indiana Beach Amusement Resort in Monticello. Play boardwalk carnival games, or let the kids loose on the go-carts. Pile the family into their vehicles for an old-fashioned movie experience at Monticello’s Lake Shore Drive-In. Indulge in a weekend dinner boat cruise to hot band sounds as the Madam Carroll plies Lake Freeman.

We traveled to the Santa Claus Post Office from Florida to mail our Christmas cards. It’s a tiny little post office, but very important. We met a volunteer elf outside the post office as he was leaving for the day. He took our photo and told us that he and his fellow elves wrote responses to around 24,000 good little boys and girls around the world that had written to Santa at a cost of about $8000, all underwritten by donations. We were delighted to find our own card in our mailbox when we arrived home with a gorgeous Santa Claus postmark on it!! Thank you, Santa Claus Post Office!

Tippecanoe County Courthouse

Reviewed By teena21_2000 - Lafayette, United States

I don't get down town nearly enough but when I get a chance, I love checking out our courthouse. It's to beautiful. The architecture is amazing. Elevators are ancient so stairs are quicker. But I love looking at the history.
