Solsberry is an unincorporated community in Beech Creek Township, Greene County, Indiana.
According to one source, Solsberry is likely a corruption of Salisbury, a city in England.[2] The Solsberry post office was established in 1851.[3] However, according to locals, the name Solsberry originates from one of the early settlers to the region, Solomon Wilkerson, who planned the town and is buried in the town cemetery.[4]
Solsberry is home to the Sculpture Trails Outdoor Museum.[5]
