The walking tour starts at the Visitor's center and is an easy neighborhood stroll that includes an explanation of how Columbus became a center of modern architecture and includes entrance to the church that started the ball rolling. The tour of the Miller house also starts at the Visitor's Center, takes you to the Miller house in a van, and shows you this outstanding example of midcentury modern architecture, left just as it was by the family that built it and lived there. The Miller house is otherwise inaccessible - you can't even see it from the street. Both tours were lead by excellent guides and both tours were well worth the ticket price. You don't need a background in architecture to appreciate these tours. Plan ahead and book your tours early.

I only stopped by to get a map, but instead spent several hours watching films about Irwin Miller, his home and the architecture of Columbus. The building itself is lovely with modern artistic areas and a fabulous Chihuly glass sculpture. The staff is super friendly, helpful and knowledgable. One staff member played a film for us (alone) to learn about the local architecture. They offer guided tours of the city and the Miller house. Reservations are required for the tours, which fill up quickly. They have information on their website about the tours so you can book in advance. Their gift shop is filled with art and books about architecture. There is plenty of parking in their private lot. Restrooms are available.

    Welcome to Southern Indiana! This little area is too…read moreincredible! Being new to the area and exploring this visitors center is located in downtown Jeffersonville. Make sure and stop in. The staff here are excited to share the joy of the area. It's not just Jeffersonville here! Go and explore. They have Clarksville and New Albany! But that's as far as we have ventured. As we make our way through the most of our new city, town, neighborhood, and community development this place was packed with al sorts of details. Do you need a reason why? Look no further, you need that perfect location for a reason for coming here. Come in and snap that perfect pic of why you came and stopped here. The area if you choose to stay like us is perfect. Either way this place is a must visit. For the knowledge on the area. They have a small gift shop that carry locally made products for you to purchase as a keepsake. The ironic woman, Rosie the Riveter is from Jeffersonville and they carry a wide variety of products to celebrate her and passion for life. You can do it! Now let's get our passion for life no matter where your road takes you.

You can tell they really love the town/city that they're representing. I love people who genuinely love things. The Southern Indiana Visitor Center definitely has people behind the counter who love Southern Indiana. They made me feel even more psyched than I already was to explore the area. They offered tips on what to see, what to eat, the best places to park, and advice about whether or not I should bundle up before heading out on my walk. (Apparently, I might have looked like I needed more layers.) There are also dozens of brochures and booklets about area attractions, which you can take for free. Basically, if you're thinking of visiting the area, this is the place to visit. The Southern Indiana Visitor Center also has a little gift shop full of Indiana paraphernalia, including magnets, candles, bags, artwork, books, cutting boards and lots more. You can also find merch for the local soccer team, Southern Indiana FC. This visitor center is located in downtown Jeffersonville, within walking distance of the pedestrian bridge that will take you to Louisville.

The building is on the National Register of Historic Places and inside you'll find exhibits that tell interesting stories from the history of Jackson County, some gifty souvenirs and books about Jackson County. (If you have time, venture into town to the corner of 2nd and Indianapolis Streets to see the mural of John Mellencamp.) One of the interesting stories from county history is the Reno Gang. It's a long story, but the thumbnail sketch is that the Reno Brothers were life-time criminals. After the Civil War, the Reno brothers returned home to Rockford, Indiana with counterfeiters, thieves, bounty jumpers, questionable characters and general ne'er do wells. The gang was soon pulling off numerous crimes but they reached their pinnacle October 6, 1866 when John and Simeon Reno, with gang members, boarded a train and stole somewhere between $12-18,000 from the safe. It was the first moving train robbery in the United States and it wasn't the last train robbery committed by the Reno Gang, either. Witnesses would mysteriously assume room temperature and no one was every convicted of the train robberies. In July 1868, when citizens were fed up, vigilantes stopped a train just west of town. The train was taking three gang members to the county lock-up. The vigilantes overpowered the guards and pulled the three Reno gangsters from the train. The gang members were hanged from one branch of a nearby beech tree. Five nights later, the vigilantes did the same thing to three more gang members, at the same location, from the same branch of the same beech tree. A third and final vigilante lynching happened at New Albany, Indiana after members of the Reno gang were removed from their cells and hanged in the jailhouse. One of those cells is on display outside the Visitor Center. The site of the first two lynchings became known as Hangman Crossing. The beech tree blew down in a windstorm and there is no marker at the spot, but the story of the Reno Gang lives on in Seymour. There may not be a historical marker at Hangman Crossing but when you go to the Visitor Center, you'll meet the center's watch cat. His name is Reno. Stop in and scratch him behind the ears, if he'll let you.

And if you don't know what the Garfield Trail is, the friendly person behind the desk is more than happy to tell you about it, and how you can participate. It's like a scavenger hunt for Garfield statues, which takes you all around downtown Muncie! It's a little quirky and fun thing to do while you're here. The people at the Visitors Bureau are so friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Not only can they tell you about the Garfield Trail, but they can give you restaurant recommendations, ideas for places to visit, history about the area and lots more. There is a whole wall dedicated to brochures and pamphlets that you can take for free, as well as a small gift shop full of locally created Muncie treasures. When I'm visiting a new-to-me city, I like to visit places like this because you get a fuller picture of the place you're in. The Muncie Visitors Bureau is a great place to stop into for a while if you're visiting Muncie.

The lady at the front desk was very informative and friendly. The only downside I found was I wish there was more things to purchase like Bob Ross things and Garfield maybe even some Ball mason jars that say Muncie would be cool!!! Hopefully this gets seen oh also more stickers I collect them from where I go I almost got one of the ones from parks and rec not knowing the Lore behind it.
