With much to see and do that brings the nation's heritage to life, Madison, Indiana is a lively reflection of pre-World War II small town America. Illustrating nearly every period of the community’s development from the first quarter of the 19th century to 1939, the Madison Historic District is home to a very large collection of fine historic buildings and more. The town was also a hotbed of antislavery activity and an important stop on the Underground Railroad before the Civil War. The Madison, Indiana Discover Our Shared Heritage Travel Itinerary was produced by the National Park Service’s Heritage Education Services and Midwest Regional Office History and National Historic Landmarks Program, in partnership with the City of Madison and the National Conference of State Historic Preservation Officers.
