    • The Magnolia Springs Historic District, in Magnolia Springs, Alabama, United States, is a 163 acres (0.66 km2) historic district which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 2012.
    A previous district of the same name had existed as an entity of Baldwin County, but it was legally dissolved by the incorporation of Magnolia Springs.
    The district runs roughly along Oak, Spring, Bay, Jessamine, Magnolia, Pine & Rock Sts., Island, Cedar & Holly Aves. & Magnolia Springs Highway. It includes 70 contributing buildings, a contributing structure, and a contributing site (the spring), as well as 47 non-contributing resources.
    The district was deemed significant "for its role as a resort community that, in the late 19th and early to mid 20th centuries, served both transient visitors as well as part-time and permanent residents who were predominantly affluent Northerners."
    Included are:

    Brunell House, 12113 Jessamine St., separately-NRHP-listed, a vernacular rental cottage with elements of Classical Revival style, including Tuscan columns.
    Governor's Club, separately-NRHP-listed
    Moore Brothers General Store (c.1925), 14770 Oak St., separately-NRHP-listed
    Magnolia Springs Community Hall (1896), Oak Street, across from the Moore Store
    St. Paul's Episcopal Church, Oak Ave, separately-NRHP-listed
    Sunnyside Hotel, 14469 Oak St., separately-NRHP-listed
