BUILDING STRONG RELATIONSHIPS

When you meet with one of our insurance professionals, the first order of business is determining your specific needs. We then develop an effective, comprehensive insurance program to fit you, your family or your business

It is important to us to let you know who we are, what we offer, and how we will help secure the home, business, or other assets you have worked so hard to obtain.

We examine your present and future needs, then develop a well-rounded insurance program that will withstand time. We continually evaluate your coverage requirement and develop a rapport of trust...the foundation of our working relationship.

WE ARE AN INDEPENDENT INSURANCE AGENCY

Unlike an insurance agency which exclusively provides coverage from one source, Burkhart Insurance Agency, Inc. offers the services of several insurance companies. We follow very strict criteria when choosing the companies that we represent and constantly monitor their performance to ensure the best possible service to you. In addition, we continually evaluate new companies that may be an asset to your personal or business security. We don't work for an insurance company, we work with you, for you.

WHAT MAKES US BETTER?

As an independent insurance agency, we offer several different types of coverage from a wide array of companies. We have a thorough understanding of all your insurance needs, large or small, business or individual, and can develop an effective, affordable program around those needs. This is how the Burkhart Insurance Agency started and will continue to do business.

GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY

Our community involvement extends beyond the doors of our agency. RSVP(Retired Senior Volunteer Program), Vincennes Area Builders Association, The Knox County Chamber of Commerce, Knox County Development Corporation, and United Way are a few of the community projects we support with hands-on work and finances.

COMMUNITY CLEANUP

Burkhart Insurance Agency is committed to the community and the proud sponsorer of the Community Clean-Up which takes place every spring. Individuals or groups in the community are given the opportunity to raise money for a non-profit organization of their choice by cleaning up the streets of Vincennes. This is just another way our agency is able to put money back into the community.

BUILDING HISTORY

In February of 1901, Vincennes architect Thomas Campbell designed the building for the Terre Haute Brewing Company. The building was finished and occupied in 1902. The building served as a livery stable and office. The beer was brewed in Terre Haute and transported down the river to the Vincennes location. From there, it was delivered by a team of horses throughout Vincennes.

The second building was constructed by businessman H.J. Hellert in the early 1900s. Mr. Hellert operated a whiskey wholesale business in the building.

In 2005, the Burkhart family decided to join in the revitalization that was taking place in historic downtown Vincennes. Anthony Burkhart purchased two vacant buildings located at the corner of 1st and Main Street with a vision to restore the buildings and expand the agency. The buildings are located on the "Mile of History" in Vincennes. In May of 2006, the renovations were completed and the agency moved to its new home.
