Zionsville's early story is a fairly typical Indiana tale. In the 1820's, settlers pushing northward put down roots near the water and trails leading to the Eagle Creek valley. By 1850, Eagle Village (Eagle Creek = Eagle Village!) was a thriving community on the Michigan Road, a stagecoach route (pop quiz - why did they call it Michigan Road?). Soon, the town's name was changed to Zionsville, after William Zion, a Lebanon businessman who was a member of the Board of Directors of a proposed railway that was run through town.
Zionsville's reputation as a cultural center began in the late 19th century when businessman B.F. Clark opened a hall with a stage over his Main Street store. In 1891, an outdoor venue opened: Zion Park, featuring a lake for pleasure boating and a baseball diamond for get-togethers and outings during in the spring, summer and fall. Just before and during that time, many of the distinctive homes that give Zionsville much of its flavor were built.
As the years passed, Zionsville continued to add amenities. Among them are cultural facilities such as the P.H. Sullivan Museum (circa 1973); Munce Art Center (circa 1981) and an improved library, the Hussey-Mayfield Memorial Public Library (circa 1994).
A dedication to preservation, a strong business community and government, some of the best schools in Indiana and an outstanding park system give Zionsville its unique personality and flavor and promise to keep that strength and attitude going well into the future.
