Perry County Old Courthouse Museum
Built in 1896, the old Perry County Courthouse Museum is made of pressed yellow brick with Bedford limestone trim. The courthouse was built to replace the first courthouse at Cannelton, which was in a house remodeled for the hasty move of the county seat from Rome in 1859. The building cost $30,000, raised by Cannelton citizens and donated to the county. The Perry County Courthouse Museum is dedicated to collecting and preserving local history and artifacts.

Myers School
Myers Grade School is historically known as “The Free School”, Cannelton, Indiana. The school opened in 1869. Now part of Cannelton City Schools, Myers Grade School is thought to be the oldest public school building in continuous operation in Indiana, perhaps in the United States. When the school was built in 1868, considerable planning went into its construction to ensure it remained modern in every respect for years to come.
Cannelton Cotton Mill
The Cannelton Cotton Mill stands as one of Indiana’s most significant industrial landmarks and a powerful symbol of Perry County’s rich history. Built in the mid-19th century along the Ohio River, the mill played a vital role in the region’s economic growth and became nationally recognized for its advanced construction, innovative engineering, and high-quality textile production. Today, the preserved limestone structure remains a striking reminder of Cannelton’s industrial heritage and the people whose craftsmanship and labor helped shape the community, earning the site designation as a National Historic Landmark.
