Soldiers & Sailors Monument

Located in the heart of Downtown on Monument Circle and recognized as one of the world’s most exceptional monuments , the monument stands as a symbol of Indianapolis and the state of Indiana.

Take the steps for some serious exercise, though beware it's tight and quite claustrophobic, especially near the top. But it pays off with a lovely 360 view of the city .

The monument is located on Monument Circle in the center of downtown and has come to symbolize the city of Indianapolis and the state of Indiana.

Beautiful, old but in the time when they knew how to make beautiful monuments . Great way to spend Sunday morning.

Very pretty. If you're willing to be in a small elevator or walk 32 flights of stairs for a view go for it.

Hard to capture it in one photo. Try putting your iPhone in pano mode but hold it so you scan it up and down. You'll get a long tall photo you can crop.

If you are looking for a place to sit down, have lunch , or just relax, this is the place to go in Indy during the day. Grab an ice cream at South Bend Chocolate Factory while you are at it.

Prime people watching . New public library installation and some great parklets

Lovely spot. Recommend grabbing a bite to eat nearby and sitting on the steps and people watching .

This monument was formally dedicated in 1902 after a parade of flags with many veterans of battle.In 1918 there was a museum added underground that has a collection of Civil War artifacts .

Great for Halloween...Can you find the lady statue on the monument that is crying? Legend has it that a man jumped to his death off of the monument and the tears were seen soon after.

The monument that gave the name to the Circle City . Be sure to climb the stairs to the observation deck.

I recommend paying the $2 for the elevator , lots of steps . ;-) The monument itself is very impressive.

It can get pretty warm on the inside. That's one downside to taking the steps .

You can get to the top for free if you take the stairs !

A free trip to the top if you take the stairs . Open 1030a-5p wed-sun.
