Howard County Court House

Nashville, Arkansas

Howard County, Arkansas

Howard County was created on April 17, 1873 from parts of Hempstead, Pike, Polk, and Sevier Counties. The first county seat was Centre Point. After the completion of a railroad to Nashville in 1885, the city grew rapidly. In 1905, after a bitter election, the county government was moved to Nashville.
