The Key West Shrimp House started in the fall of 1950 on the south side of Indianapolis. The Madison location opened in 1968 and was previously part of the Button Factory. In 1958, a waitress, Pat, was hired and later her husband, Paul, who then purchased the Madison location in 1981. Their family has owned the Key West Shrimp House since. In 2014, the family became a “behind the scenes” owner and passed the reigns to a longtime waitress, Cathy. The Key West Shrimp House is now available for a new owner to carry on the wonderful history that has become a generational family dining in Historic Downtown Madison.

Madison, Indiana was founded in 1809 along the beautiful Ohio River. The city was bursting with commerce, had a very active steamboat port, and was home to Indiana's first railroad! It is because of this unique location and transportation infrastructure that Madison was primed to be a link on the Underground Railroad.

Today, the Madison Music Movement is here to enhance the already excellent quality of life in our community by focusing on one of our unique strengths, our blossoming identity as a great music town. Seasonally, enjoy the ‘Live for Lunch: Music in the Streets’ series, varying artists serenade lunch goers in local parks.

The Madison, Indiana area has a vibrant arts community, alive with creativity, and it contains one of only six Indiana Cultural Districts!

This designation is perfect for Madison. For a small city, we have a uniquely large collection of creative people - from visual art to creative writing, music, theater, and culinary arts. This brings much attention to the community's long effort and hard work to create a thriving community which values its historic architecture, natural beauty, and existing artists of all forms.

With over 100 short term rentals (Air B&B) in the downtown area, a newly remodeled Cotton Mill building, originally built in 1884, now a Fairfield by Marriott, along with other hotels, brings overnight guest for shopping, dining and sightseeing. With more than 133 blocks of outstanding architecture, Madison’s downtown business district is one of the country’s largest National Historic Landmark Districts. Madison’s founders brought with them their own history, which is displayed in the architecture of the homes and buildings that make up this historic gem. Travel America says, “Madison is an outdoor museum of architecture.”

There are 8 house museums that are open to the public during the season and several more open by advance appointment. They range from the office of a horse and buggy doctor (kids love the skeleton) to a 19th century saddletree factory, to grand homes.

The crown jewel of Madison historic sites is Lanier Mansion State Historic Site – open all year with guided tours. Beautiful formal gardens surround the mansion. Please visit the following website for additional information:
