Montgomery is a town in Barr Township, Daviess County, Indiana, United States.

Montgomery was a station and shipping point on the Ohio and Mississippi Railway.

In 1841, bishop Célestine Guynemer de la Hailandière gave the parish and the land to French priest and missionary Edward Sorin, CSC who came with seven Brothers of the Congregation of Holy Cross.

At the time the property consisted in 160-acre tract of land, the frame church with two additional small rooms, and two log cabins.

One cabin was used as a school conducted by Charles Rother who took the name Brother Joseph.

However, the bishops also stated that he was not against a founding of a college elsewhere, provided that this effort would not prevent him his Brothers from accomplishing their education duties.

Near the end of October the bishop offered Sorin certain lands at the furthermost limits of the diocese in South Bend.

Sorin left St. Peters and proceeded to found the University of Notre Dame.

The village features various shops offering furniture, blankets, and other handmade goods created by the Amish.
