park, NRHP - National Register of Historic Places
Located adjacent to the IUPUI campus, Military Park is the oldest park in Indianapolis, Indiana, covering 14 acres (6 ha). In accordance with the Indiana Constitution, the land that forms Military Park cannot be sold; only Monument Circle and half of the Indiana State Capitol share this distinction.
Although it was a Civil War encampment and home to the first Indiana State Fair, the park drew its name from its shape--like a military badge. The park is home to many festivals throughout the year.
