Marble lions once guarded secrets where Downtown’s shadows stretch across the Old Courthouse steps. Here, every stone and stained glass hides a tale of ambition, rebellion, and whispered scandal—if you know where to listen.

This self-guided audio tour unlocks offbeat stories and rarely told moments from the heart of the city. Roam at your pace and decode the legends behind elegant facades and hidden alleyways.

Why did a thunderous courtroom showdown shake the political world inside the Old Vanderburgh County Courthouse? Who vanished into the labyrinth of Integra Bank, leaving only riddles and rumors behind? What bizarre midnight ritual brought performers to the depths beneath the Victory Theatre?

Wander through corridors of power and listen as lost voices murmur from vintage marble and velvet seats. Stir the dust in places most feet never pause—and see Downtown unfurl in a storm of drama and revelation.

Press play and let these streets confess their best-kept secrets.
