Plan a Visit

Start where it all began. Before you stroll through the streets and shops of historic Eureka Springs, Arkansas, plan to make your first stop the Eureka Springs Historical Museum.

Located in the historic 1889 Calif House at 95 South Main, the Eureka Springs Historical Museum will be one of your first discoveries as you enter the downtown area.  This historic three-story structure was made from limestone taken from the nearby White River. It houses a variety of permanent and changing exhibits preserving the history and art of this health resort town and its people.

The Eureka Springs Historical Museum operates a Visitor Info Center and is available year-round to educate and entertain your whole family or group.

    History of the Museum

    In 1971 the Ozark Folk Festival Board of Directors purchased the historic Calif House for the purpose of establishing a museum of local history. A museum advisory board accepted the task to collect, preserve and exhibit artifacts in the building, and the museum opened to the public October, 1971.

    In 1980, Eureka Springs Historical Museum, Inc., an association open to membership to all interested persons, assumed ownership of the museum property and oversight of its operation. The wood and glass store front and two-story ornamented wood porches were replaced as the building was restored to its original appearance.
