A Glimpse into Julietta's Past

Julietta is home to a very old and interesting building. This historic property was built way back in 1832. It first served as a place to help people who were in need. Later, it became known as the Marion County Infirmary. This facility was a place that offered care for people with mental health challenges. By the early 1900s, it mainly became a home for older people. As of 2021, the building is used by Hope Center Indy. This organization continues to help people in the community.
