Arkansas Tuberculosis Sanatorium Historic District
Arkansas Tuberculosis Sanatorium Historic District, Medical historic district in Booneville, United States.
The Arkansas Tuberculosis Sanatorium Historic District contains 76 buildings across a thousand-acre property on a hilltop location south of Booneville.
The sanatorium opened in 1910 with a 64-patient capacity and expanded to become the largest tuberculosis treatment facility in the United States by 1940.
The complex incorporated a complete community with its own chapel, theater, post office, school, and library to support patients during their extended treatment periods.
The facility operated its own agricultural system with cattle, pigs, gardens, orchards, and a cannery to provide food for thousands of patients and staff.
The Nyberg Building, constructed in 1938, stretched 528 feet in length across five stories, containing medical facilities, offices, and patient rooms.
