Big Well Museum & Visitor Information Center
The Big Well Museum & Visitor Information Center is one of Greensburg’s most prized attractions. The Big Well was hand dug in 1888 as Greensburg’s first water supply and survived the 2007 tornado. The new museum opened May 26, 2012 and features the Big Well, museum exhibits about the history of Greensburg and the well, the tornado that devastated Greensburg and the rebuilding as a sustainable community.
