Museum Barn Repairs

Built in 1922 by the American Circus Corporation, the five existing buildings are Registered as National Historic Landmarks. The Museum barn has a rotted-out beam that supports the upper wall with all of the windows in it. That wall supports the roof. We are raising money for the repair of this beam to help preserve the Museum barn for generations to come. There is more work to come as the windows all need to be replaced and the siding all needs to be re-worked to close up the gaps.

The Circus Hall of Fame is a 501c3 Non-Profit Circus Museum in Peru, Indiana. We have been in existance since 1982. We offer a huge Museum / Exhibit area inside as well as old circus wagons and a walking tour outside. We participate in Fairs, Festivals and local Parades. We are located in the former American Circus Corporation winter quarters.
