Review:
Widely acknowledged to be one of the finest War Monuments in the world, the iconic Soldiers and Sailors Monument is a prominent Indianapolis landmark. The monument honors all the men (and women) who bravely served in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, the Mexican War, the Civil War, the Frontiers War and the Spanish American War. Literally bristling with symbolic sculptures, the monument stands over 284 feet tall and is built from grey limestone which was quarried on Owen County. There is an observatory and gift shop, reached by 330 stairs (for free) or by elevator, for a small fee. Guided tours can be booked in advance.
