Faithful attention to
authenticity has made Mississinewa 1812 the premiere living history
event in Indiana. Here you will step back into the wilderness
life of early Indiana Territory.
It was the morning of December 18, 1812,
the morning of the Battle of the Mississinewa. Above the sound
of fighting, smell of gunpowder and feel of death rose one of the
most significant chapters in the War of 1812 and dramatic moments in
the history of Grant County, Indiana.

This activity is
made possible in part by the Indiana Arts Commission, a state
agency, with funds from the Indiana General Assembly and the
