Okay, letâs be realâwhen someone says âmuseum,â your mind probably jumps to giant halls, echoey corridors, and walking for hours, right? But Indyâs Teeny Statue of Liberty Museum throws all that out the window and serves up one of the most unexpectedly delightful stops in Fountain Square, right here in Indianapolis. Located at 872 Virginia Ave, tucked inside the incredibly quirky and lovable Peppy Grill parking lot (yes, really), this teeny museum is exactly what it sounds likeâa compact celebration of Lady Liberty, and it's as weird and wonderful as Indy gets.

đ Over 1,000 Items â Figurines, vintage postcards, miniatures, stamps, comic booksâyou name it, if itâs got Lady Liberty on it, itâs probably here.
đŻ Free Admission â Thatâs right. You just walk right in, snap a selfie, soak in the good vibes, and get a crash course in Liberty-lore for zero dollars.
