Historic Junction City

While Heritage Park is a great place to visit and spend time with community events, there is also historical value in this park. The Vietnam Veteran’s wall is stunning! Just around the corner is the Opera House.

The C.L. Hoover Opera House was originally built around 1882, but was unfortunately stricken by fire in 1898. The building was rebuilt and used by many businesses including one of the movie theaters. The community worked diligently to completely restore the original beauty of the building starting in 2003 and  re-opening in 2008.
