INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The Indiana War Memorial Museum will be reopened on Wednesday following several months of repairs and renovations.

The museum announced the reopening on social media and welcomed visitors to come and see its new updates after closing its doors in October.

Some of the new updates include a new sprinkler system, plaster, painting, and more.

General Steward Goodwin, Executive Director of the Museum says the museum is totally different now.

“There’s a cloud up here that’s hiding all of the sprinklers and new lighting and we had to paint the walls and cracks and that kind of thing,” he said.

Goodwin says the museum is a hidden gem in Indiana. He says they annually attract thousands of visitors yearly.

The War Memorial was built in 1926 to honor Hoosier veterans of World War I and features the USS Indianapolis Gallery, numerous military firearms and uniforms, an AH-1 Cobra Attack Helicopter, and hundreds of other artifacts, photos, and documents.

“Well, I don’t think they can expect it because there’s no other place like this. It’s a 30,000-square-foot museum,” Goodwin said.

The museum at 55 E. Michigan St. is open from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Wednesday-Sunday. The Museum is free to attend.
