The General Lew Wallace Study & Museum, an architectural wonder and National Historic Landmark situated on the grounds where Lew Wallace wrote his masterwork Ben-Hur, celebrates Wallace's fascinating legacy and renews belief in the power of the individual spirit to affect American history and culture.
General Wallace’s lifetime of service and dedication to his country is reflected in the genuine artifacts housed in the Study, a building that he designed himself. The museum also features memorabilia from the various dramatizations of Ben-Hur, including the Academy-Award-winning 1959 motion picture starring Charlton Heston.
The Museum features exciting yearly events, expanded exhibit space in the new Carriage House Interpretive Center, and a full-service Museum Store. The General Lew Wallace Study and Museum is located at 200 Wallace Avenue, Crawfordsville, IN 47933.
