Dominating the five-block picturesque setting of War Memorial Plaza in downtown Indianapolis, the Indiana World War Memorial sits 210 feet above street level. This mausoleum-style limestone and marble memorial pays homage to Hoosiers killed during the war and also houses a 30,000 square foot museum that portrays American military history from the Revolutionary War to present day.
Indy's new light show Shining a Light will illuminate the Soldiers & Sailors Monument beginning this fall.
Indy is a patriotic city with more monuments and memorials than any U.S. city outside of Washington D.C.
