Please note the Fine Art America logo does Not Print on ordered products.
A Water Tower is part of the ruins of a castle in Ha Ha Tonka State park, located on Lake of the Ozarks and just South of Camdenton, Missouri. Native Americans called this area Ha Ha Tonka which means "laughing waters" due to the beautiful springs. The castle was started by Robert McClure Snyder Sr in 1905. In 1906 he was killed in an auto accident. His sons Robert Jr. and Kenneth completed the castle in the late 1920's. It was used as a hotel until it was destroyed by a fire in 1942. In 1978, the state of Missouri purchased it and the land and opened it to the public as a state park. In 2004 a new roof was installed on the Tower.
