View of West Baden Springs, Indiana, Circa 1910
| Description: |
The town of West Baden Springs was originally named Mile Lick. It was renamed West Baden after the first hotel was built there in 1855. The town was the site of mineral springs which attracted guests to the hotel seeking the curative waters. This view of the town is seen from the front lawn of the West Baden Springs Hotel as it looked about 1910. The original nitrate negative was copied with funds provided by a grant from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission in 1990. This digital image was created from that copy. The copy prints and negatives are stored in Microfiche Number order. Interpositives are stored in PAN number order. Bicentennial Train Image |
