Description

Main Street in Eureka, Utah. These buildings are all part of the Eureka Historic District, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Eureka is a former silver mining town that used to be the center of activity for the Tintic Mining District. The Tintic Mining District was established in 1870, and large-scale mining occurred there from that time up until about post-World War II. There's still some small-time mining going on here, but nothing major and all of the formerly big producing mines are closed down. Eureka, which once had a population of over 3,000, now has about 650 residents. A very interesting place to visit if you're ever in the Utah/Juab County area.
