Miamisburg is home to a Miami Indian Burial Mound (Tumulus). Once serving as an ancient burial site, the Mound stands as perhaps the most recognizable historic landmark in Miamisburg.

It is the largest conical burial Mound east of the Mississippi River and remains virtually intact from its origins hundreds of years ago. Located in a city park at 900 Mound Avenue, it is an Ohio historical site and serves as a popular attraction and picnic destination for area families. Visitors can climb to the top of the Mound, via concrete steps built into its side.
