Standing Tall
Peter Toth’s sculpture of Shawnee leader Tecumseh is standing tall along the Wabash River. In the years 1810-1811, Tecumseh defended the rights of his followers in Vincennes during his meetings with William Henry Harrison, Governor of the Indiana Territory.
Donations are still being sought to erect a fence around the sculpture. In order to insure that the sculpture remains in good condition a fence is necessary. To make a tax deductable donation to the Tecumseh Project contact the Vincennes/Knox County CVB at 812.886.0400.
