The Clark County Museum, Inc., was formed in 2008 by a group of people who were collectors of Clark County artifacts and memorabilia and who understood the importance of our county both in Indiana and United States history. Our goal was to establish a county museum dedicated to the acquisition, storage, display, and interpretation of these artifacts.

The Colgate Clock in Clarksville is one of the largest clocks in the world! Standing tall since 1924, this iconic timepiece is just one piece of Southern Indiana's strange history. Prior to its life as a factory, the site also served as a state prison, which you can learn more about at another Stranger Things of SoIN stop - the Clark County Museum.

Rose Island Abandoned Theme Park is a chilling and mysterious location situated in Charlestown, Indiana. Once a bustling attraction in the early 20th century, this now derelict park serves as a haunting reminder of a bygone era. Visitors can explore the decaying remains of what was once a lively amusement park, complete with rides, attractions, and even a swimming pool.

The park opened in 1923 and quickly became a popular destination for locals and tourists alike. However, a devastating flood in 1937 caused extensive damage to the park, forcing it to close its doors for good. Since then, nature has slowly reclaimed the land, with overgrown vegetation and decaying structures adding to the park's eerie ambiance.

Despite its abandoned state, Rose Island still draws in curious adventurers looking to experience its ghostly charm. Urban explorers and photographers are particularly drawn to the park's atmospheric ruins, capturing its haunting beauty through stark imagery. The park's history and tragic end only add to the sense of mystery surrounding this forgotten gem.

Visitors should exercise caution when exploring Rose Island, as the structures are unstable and the terrain can be treacherous. Nonetheless, for those brave enough to venture into its forgotten depths, Rose Island Abandoned Theme Park offers a unique and spine-tingling experience like no other.

This 21-foot metal statue stands gracefully looking over Jeffersonville. Seemingly coming out of nowhere, the Metal Lady statue is a sight that you can’t miss while in SoIN. Created in the mid 1980s by Floyds Knobs’ artist Carl Elwanger, the artwork is also known as “Winds of Change,” which ties into an inscription on a sign by the statue. Stop by to observe this mysterious sculpture.
