Historic New Harmony

New Harmony, Indiana, located on the banks of the Wabash River, is an experience like no other. A community that began almost two hundred years ahead of its time, New Harmony was first a spiritual sanctuary that later became a haven for international scientists, scholars, and educators who sought equality in communal living. Visitors to this State Historic Site will learn more about life at this Indiana settlement from the early 1800s through the 1940s.
