The Arkansas Old State House Museum is the oldest standing state capitol building west of the Mississippi River. Since 1833, the building has witnessed many of the most important events in Arkansas history, but according to some who visit the property, echoes from that past remain in forms that visitors don’t quite expect. In fact, some even claim that the apparition of a man still wanders the Old State House of Representative Chambers almost two hundred years after he was expelled for violently murdering his colleague.

Join us as we explore the history of the Old State House, as well as the events that led up to the now-infamous Arkansas Knife Fight of 1836.

Visit the Old State House Museum at 300 W. Markham Street, Little Rock, Arkansas, and explore some of the state’s rich history firsthand!
