Murfreesboro is a city in, and the county seat of, Pike County, Arkansas, United States. Its population was 1,764 at the 2000 census. The city is known for the Crater of Diamonds State Park located south of the city.

History:

In 1906, diamonds were found on a local farm. It was determined that an 80-acre (32 ha) volcanic formation was the source of the diamonds.[citation needed] The property was eventually sold to the state of Arkansas, which opened the 911-acre (369 ha) Crater of Diamonds State Park to the public. As a tourist attraction a daily fee ($8 in 2015) is charged to search for diamonds.

Also located in Murfreesboro is the 1,000-year-old Ka-Do-Ha Indian Village and museum dedicated to it, which offers a field that can be excavated for authentic arrowheads.
