There's all the Civil War stuff (plaques downtown, Wilson's Creek Battlefield), the lynching plaque on the square, and several places where the Trail of Tears went through. The cemetary at Glenstone and Seminole is the only National Cemetary with soldiers from both the Union and the Confederacy. The Albino Farm has stories, but last I knew you can't get to it any more. Spook Light down near Joplin.
