The Bank of Searcy is a historic bank building at 301 North Spruce Street in downtown Searcy, Arkansas. It is a two-story buff brick structure, whose main entrance is flanked by Doric columns supporting a segmented arch. The building has other vernacular elements of the Classical Revival, including segmented-arch window bays on the facade facing Arch Avenue. It was built in 1906, following a fire that destroyed many of the commercial buildings on the west side of the courthouse, which stands across North Spruce Street.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.[1]
