Discover Indiana is a free app that puts Indiana history at your fingertips.

Find interesting people, places and events in Indiana’s history. With a growing list of interpretive stories, each point on the interactive GPS-enabled map includes historical information about the location, along with historic images from archival collections and historical publications. For some sites there are audio and/or video clips. It is a collaborative effort by students, public historians, teachers, and community members and organizations. You can find more information about Indianapolis history by visiting the project website at discoverindianahistory.org.

This app is great.

I've always enjoyed history and learning the stories of the people and places around me and this app does exactly that. Living downtown, it's easy to just walk with your head down and not pay attention to what's around you, but this app lets you fold back the world around you and peek back to what it was like decades or centuries ago. Really cool stories and great pictures of all of these historic locations. I would love to see more locations added in the future.
