State Road 13 (SR 13) is a north–south state road in the US state of Indiana. The southern terminus is at an intersection with U.S. Highway 36 (US 36) and SR 67, in the town of Fortville, and its northern terminus is at the Michigan state line. At its northern end, signage for SR 13 ends at the interchange with the Indiana Toll Road; the highway continues unsigned for an additional 0.6 miles (0.97 km) running concurrently with US 131 to the state line. The state road runs through six counties in central and north-central Indiana mostly through rural farm fields and small towns.

Dating back to the early days of the state road system, SR 13 was first signed in the eastern and northeastern part of the state. It was moved to its modern routing in 1931, running in two segments with the southern end in Indianapolis and the northern end at the Michigan state line. During the late 1930s, SR 13 was moved onto its modern routing in far southern Elkhart County. The southern end was moved from Indianapolis to Greenfield in the late 1930s or early 1940s. The north–south concurrency with US 33 was added in the early 1970s and the southern terminus was moved to Fortville in the mid-to-late 1970s.
