Excellent Family Activity
We had an excellent family experience at Conner Prairie!! I suggest you relax, take your time and take advantage of all of the special activities and exhibitions offered throughout the day. The new Discovery Station for the young ones is a wonderful addition to this fun and educational attraction!

Fantastic Family Fun
I was pleasantly surprised by my recent visit to Conner Prairie. Not knowing what to expect I left there ready to go back again. Everyone was so friendly - from the admission desk to the "characters" to the gift store staff. My family had a wonderful time experiencing the lives of the different periods and villages. The exhibits and the people made it a wonderful experience.
