Prophetstown

Prophetstown is a historic site in Indiana that commemorates the Native American community led by Tecumseh and Tecumseh's brother, the Prophet, in the early 19th century. Originally a Native American village and spiritual center, it played a significant role in local history and resistance against American expansion. Today, Prophetstown State Park preserves the site, offering visitors educational exhibits, outdoor activities, and opportunities to learn about Native American culture and early American frontier history. It serves as a place of cultural preservation, historical reflection, and outdoor recreation.
