The Indiana Military Museum was founded in 1984 by Knox County Superior Court Judge Jim R. Osbourne, who serves as the museum’s director and curator today. It began as a small collection that has grown steadily over the years. The collections present at the Indiana Military museum are the following: artillery and weapons, armor, soft-skinned vehicles, aircraft, and uniforms from different military engagements. There is also an extensive collection dedicated to General Alexander Haig and a Pearl Harbor exhibit. In 2019 a new annex was built to display vehicles and artifacts that previously could not be displayed. The Indiana Military Museum offers educational programs and research opportunities.
