Introduction
The City of Corydon is located in the south-central portion of the State of Indiana, relatively close to the Ohio River along Kentucky to the south. Located in the rolling hills of Southern Indiana, the City of Corydon is a relatively smaller locale, with permanent population estimates often smaller than ten thousand (10,000) residents.
Iconic Corydon
The City of Corydon is home to Indiana’s First State Capitol, prior to having moved significantly north to the modern City of Indianapolis in the central portion of the State. Today, the First State Capitol building remains preserved to symbolize the original role of the city, though additional locations of interest include the First State Office Building, the Corydon Capitol State Historic Site, the William Henry Harrison Log Cabin, the Posey House, and the Constitution Elm Stump.
Iconic Harrison County
Located outside the inner city limits of Corydon, though still within the county limits of Harrison County, are notable tourist attractions at the Indiana Caverns and the Squire Boone Caverns to the south. Both sites are generally accessible within close proximity to State Road 135 south of the City of Corydon, while smaller parks and associated areas also exist to serve the smaller communities throughout the rolling hills of the county.
