THE CITY THAT WATER BUILT

Learn about the history of the springs and the ‘healing water’ story of the founding of Eureka Springs.

Ozarka Spring Water Company officially began in 1905 but as early as 1856 Dr. Alvah Jackson was bottling the ‘healing’ water from the springs as “Dr. Jackson’s Eye Water” .  And long before that, the Native Americans had known and used the power of the springs and considered it to be sacred ground.

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.
