One of the oldest and most historical buildings in the Alton area is the Mineral Springs Mall. It was founded by two german immigrants August and Herman Luer in 1909. Mineral Springs Mall was originally famous for it's mineral springs which were said to have medicinal properties. Mineral Springs Mall was built as a resort hotel, which brought in tourists from all over the world. Another great feature of the hotel was the Crystal River Ballroom, a luxurious ballroom that could seat several hundred guests. After some time the hotel began losing it's shine, and the building started to close in the 1960's. Historic Mineral Springs Mall was reopened in the 1970's as an antique shopping mall.
