About Me

Founded on July 4, 1879, Eureka Springs is a Victorian mountain village that was a spa resort in the last of the Golden Age. It was frequented by people from Chicago and St. Louis that built their summer homes here and lovingly restored.

National leaders and celebrities come from far and wide to enjoy hospitality that can only be found in Eureka Springs. Special visitors to Eureka Springs have included: President Bill and Hillary Clinton, Robin Williams, Carrie Fisher, Mary Steenburgen, Billy Bob Thorton, Bill Cosby, Allison Krauss, Taj Mahal, Annie DeFranco, the late Ray Charles, Emmie Lou Harris, Bryant Gumble, Dave Brewbeck, Chick Corea and more.

Eureka Springs Historic District was first listed in 1970 on the National Register of Historic Places. The National Register Information System (NRIS) describes Eureka Springs as a "health resort community containing numerous 1880-1890's stone commercial and residential structures...the area was first developed around springs discovered by Dr. Alvah Jackson."

Eureka Springs is home to the most significant architecturual structures of the 20th century. Thorncrown Chapel ranks as the fourth most significant American architectural structures behind the Sears Tower, Empire State Building and Chrysler Building.
