The Simpsons Springfield Mural

Highlight • Monument

Inaugurated on August 25, 2014, in partnership with The Simpsons' creator Matt Groening. It celebrates Groening's Oregon origins and Springfield link. The hints are all there: The rivalry with its neighboring city, the butte that shares a name with a certain elementary principal, and more!
