Indiana Medical History Museum
A medical facility that has been kept frozen in time
Category Medical Museums
What makes the Indiana Medical History Museum so interesting is that this one-time medical school has been kept just as it was over 100 years ago. The building itself is the oldest surviving pathology facility in the nation and is on the National Register of Historic Places. Make sure to see the 1896 teaching amphitheater, where students fainted in their chairs during the autopsies.
