Wabash County, Indiana
Wabash County sits in north-central Indiana, about halfway between Fort Wayne and Indianapolis. The Wabash River cuts through its heart, shaping the county’s landscape.
Wabash is the county seat. It proudly claims to be the first electrically lighted city in the world. Small towns and farmland that dominate the scenery. The county’s Amish communities add a touch of old-world charm.
The Honeywell Center draws big-name performers to this rural part of Indiana. Locals fish in the Salamonie Reservoir on lazy summer days. Paradise Spring Historical Park tells the story of the area’s early settlers. Agriculture still plays a big role in the local economy.
