Lilly House is a house museum located on a 26-acre estate on the Indianapolis Museum of Art campus. The estate home was designed c. 1909 by Lewis Ketcham Davis for the family of Hugh McKennan Landon, who occupied the home from 1913 until 1932 when it was sold to Josiah K. Lilly Jr., the late Indianapolis businessman, collector, and philanthropist. Known historically as "Oldfields", the estate features gardens and grounds designed in the 1920s by Percival Gallagher of the famous landscape architecture firm Olmsted Brothers.
In 2000, the estate was added to the National Register of Historic Places. In 2003, it was designated as a national historic landmark. The property is considered a historic district, including ten buildings and 28 other contributing resources.
