Van Buren Historic District
Van Buren Historic District, Nineteenth-century historic district in Van Buren, Arkansas, United States.
The Van Buren Historic District contains eight blocks of Victorian and Italianate structures along Main Street between the train depot and Arkansas River.
The Crawford County Courthouse, constructed in 1842 and rebuilt in 1876 using original walls, stands as the oldest operating courthouse west of the Mississippi River.
The district preserves architectural elements from the 1800s through restored buildings, including the King Opera House that continues to host theatrical performances.
Visitors can explore the district through a digital walking tour application that provides detailed information about the historical structures and local landmarks.
A gold-painted iron statue of Hebe, installed in 1908, remained on the Crawford County Courthouse lawn until its replacement with a bronze version in 2003.
