The Sisters of Providence, founded by Saint Mother Theodore Guerin in 1840, welcome tourists and pilgrims to their grounds to see the shrines, scenery, historic architecture, eco-justice center and alpaca herd.
The Sisters of Providence of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods is a religious congregation of Catholic women founded by Théodore Guérin in Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, Indiana, in 1840. Guérin and her five companion sisters departed from the Sisters of Providence of Ruillé-sur-Loir, France, at the invitation of the Bishop of Vincennes to found the Sisters of Providence in the United States. In 1843, the Indiana congregation became independent of the religious institute in Ruillé, and the rules of the congregation were approved by the Holy See in 1887.

Eugene V. Debs Museum
This was the house of the late 19th- to early 20th-century leader of the Socialist Party of America. Each room is filled with Eugene V. Debs artifacts up to the third floor, where the ceiling is completely covered in a beautiful mural painted by John Laska. The house really gives you an idea of the time period. Call ahead if you would like to arrange a tour at a different time.
A small but good art museum in downtown Terre Haute that features art primarily from the twentieth century. The museum also houses plenty of Hoosier artists, and hosts traveling collections as well.
Impressive children's museum for a smaller town. Hands-on exhibits, lots of different activities, and a gift shop.
You can have fun at a little skate park.
