This museum is amazing! Someone who is interested in any area of the medical field or psychology, or just loves the neat, different and rather unique hidden places will love it here. The guided tour allows for enough time to explore the room and look at items for a few minutes after the guide explains the purpose of the room and the highlighted areas. The museum contained both items donated and items origional to the pathology building apart of what was once Central State Hospital. I would definitely recommend and return!

Specimens on display of former patients. Medical Doctor lecture halls like in the old days. Cool pathology rooms where ice was used to keep bodies cool for autopsy reasons. This place is awesome if you are medical curious about stuff. They have botany outside and hey even real skeletal models.

Awesome museum for anyone interested in history, medicine, or the slightly macabre. The building site is packed with local and national history, and the exhibits are world-class. Definitely worth exploring, whether you are visiting the city or are a local looking for some adventure.

Such a cool location. The tour is great and very informative. We loved visiting this Historical Museum. It is such an underrated museum with a rich history and I really wish that it would receive more attention. During the summer they show old movies on a screen in the auditorium.

A little off the beaten path but if your interested in medical history its a great little tour to kill a few hours. Its is located on the former grounds of a mental institution. They also have a garden with the former and current uses of the plants there.

Ive been to many museums and this is a rare and special place. Beautifully preserved building and furnishings for over 100 years. A chance to see state-of-the-art medical science as it was in 1895.

This is one of the coolest places Ive toured in Indiana. Our guide took us all around for over an hour. She provided great detail and historical context to the facility. Very interesting.

Dope. It was cool to learn about old medicinal practices. I also learned I dont do well at the sight of brain. I would not take children under 12 to this museum.

Amazingly interesting! Great for school medical field trip. There are a lot of cool artifacts and stuff left there from before there was a museum made of it

Fascinating collection AND an architectural treasure in the city of Indianapolis. Where is the public and corporate support for this gem of a museum?

If you like history check this place out. It seems pricey for what you get but the money goes to preserve the building so it doesnt get torn down.
