Experience the best things to do in Metamora, Indiana's only Canal town. It is a charming small village rich in history and picturesque beauty. When construction began on the Whitewater Canal in the 1830s, it ultimately opened the Whitewater River valley to commercial and industrial activity and the establishment of new settlements. Like many others, the town of Metamora flourished along the canal banks. The canal allowed agricultural products to gain access to new markets. It gave mills and industries the hydraulic power they needed to produce goods like bread, timber, and paper, among other things. The canal water flow continued to supply power for the mills even after the railway's construction on the canal's towpath in the future. The canal's towpath eventually became an even more efficient transit channel. The drama Metamora, or The Last of the Wampanoags, was released in 1829 and inspired the naming of the town.
