Sunset Park Pavilion, also known as the Sunset Park Shelter House/Pagoda, is a historic park pavilion located at Evansville, Indiana. It was built in 1912, and is a one-story shelter house in the form of a Japanese pagoda. It is constructed of reinforced concrete and is topped by a red tile roof that is characteristically upturned at the corners. It was originally an open air facility, but has been enclosed.[2] It was restored in 1993 and now houses the Evansville convention and visitors bureau.[3][4]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1]
