Oldfields

The 26-acre Oldfields estate includes a 22-room mansion with period furnishings, formal gardens, and carefully maintained landscape designs on the Newfields campus.

Built between 1909 and 1913 for Hugh McKennan Landon, the estate was later purchased by Josiah K. Lilly Jr in 1932, who expanded the property throughout the 1930s.

The mansion displays the American Country Place architectural movement, reflecting the lifestyle of wealthy industrialists who established residences outside urban centers during the early 1900s.

Located on the grounds of Indianapolis Museum of Art, Oldfields welcomes visitors seven days a week from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM with wheelchair access throughout the property.

The estate maintains ninety percent of its original furnishings from the Lilly family period, preserving an authentic representation of 1930s upper-class American domestic life.
