Batesville National Guard Armory

Batesville, Independence County

The WPA helped build this Art Deco armory for Batesville's National Guard company in 1936 and 1937. It was later named the Abraham Armory for Lucien Abraham, the company's captain who became the state's adjutant general. After a full restoration it opened as a museum in 1998.
