I wish I could rate this a 10! It was amazing. So much war history in such a beautiful building. We've traveled and seen a lot of historical sites, but this is my favorite, by far. A great opportunity for kids to "see" the past and for adults to remember. Don't miss out.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYesPrice for adult entryFree
MUST see! A truly unique and enormous hidden gem in downtown Indianapolis; you will be in awe of this spectacular building! Great place to visit, learn about the history, to see the dedication to the United States military along with its accomplishments and sacrifices. Makes you feel proud to be a Hoosier and an American!
One of the BEST museums that I've visited thus far. Tons of history and a timeline that depicts crucial moments of this country. A true testament in honoring the veterans that served and the ones that paid the ultimate sacrifice. A MUST see if you are ever in Indianapolis.
The most awe-inspiring place ever! THE most comprehensive collection of American military history, under one roof, I've ever seen. The honor and respect paid to all branches and those who've served is embedded throughout.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entryFree
I lived in Indiana for the first 23 years of my life. I have driven by the memorial hundreds of times, but until today had never visited. The basement is a pretty good museum of Indiana Service Men and Women from all conflicts starting at the Revolutionary War until today. The main floor houses a really good exhibit about the sinking of the USS Indianapolis at the very end of WW2. I knew of the sinking, but really learned a lot about the history of the ship, and what led to the sinking. The top of the Memorial is called the Shrine Room. The only word I can think of is FANTASTIC!! If you visit, save the Shrine for last, so it will be the lasting impression!
This really is an excellent stop. There are a lot of nice stops in Indy. We've passed over this several times. It is well worth the time. Well worth. Set aside at least 90 minutes. Maybe more, but 90 minutes at least. There is a lot of good stuff. The propaganda posters from the 2 world wars is the best. The post 9-11 stuff, especially post Afghanistan, the worst. Not that it was bad, but the display doesn't match the outcome. Not the soldiers' fault. They did their job.
I loved the monument and the museum inside. It’s full of history and color. Entrance is free so there are no excuses.
I truly deeply respect & humbly admire what army people do for us. The staff at this place was notably humble & helpful. Thanks to them. For those who know detailed history of both world wars & other wars, this place us one of those hundreds of war memorials where history has been narrated from American point of view rather than what actually happened, which I feel is fair to know how great they did while dropping nuclear bomb on japan, or how great they did by managing millions of people to save this planet from mighty Germany. They have hundreds of the war propaganda pictures that were used to motivate youth of that time. They interestingly cover the sad painful part of wars where people die due to lack of resources & bad circumstances. I noticed there's a small gallery of how great usa army did in Afghanistan to build their nation, culture & democracy there. Well, now that things have changed in 2022, I feel museum mgmt should make changes in this gallery. Overall a great place to be to feel the honor, pride, passion for the nation. Must visit for teens and young people.
I’m really glad we made the time to visit. A wonderful place with good exhibits and a chance to see a classic American building. We found the names of family relatives from the world war on the memorial wall and visit the solemn centerpiece. Well worth the visit.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo wait
I was fascinated with how well put together the Indiana War Memorial and Museum displays so much history in a small location in such an informative way, there is so much to see here, my only complaint is their limited open time, can make it difficult to see this amazing jewel in the heart of Indianapolis.
