Smackover, Small oil town in Union County, Arkansas, United States
The city features western-style buildings along Main Street, with a street-mounted antique traffic light marking the center of town.
French settlers named the area 'Sumac Couvert' in 1686, which English speakers later modified to Smackover through common pronunciation.
The Arkansas Museum of Natural Resources in Smackover exhibits the region's petroleum heritage through artifacts and educational displays.
The Smackover School District serves local students through its elementary school and high school education facilities.
In 1922, the discovery of the Smackover Oil Field led to the drilling of 1,000 wells that produced 25 million barrels within one year.
