Woodward is a city in and the county seat of Woodward County, Oklahoma, United States. It is the largest city in a nine-county area. The population was 11,975 at the United States Census. The area was historically occupied by the Kiowa, Comanche, Cheyenne and Arapaho tribes. European-American settlers established the town in 1887 after construction of the railroad to that point for shipping cattle to markets.


The town was on the Great Western Cattle Trail. In the 19th century, it was one of the most important depots in the Oklahoma Territory for shipping cattle to the East. As an important cattle town, it had the rough frontier bawdiness of the time. The United States opened up much of the area to European-American settlement by the Land Run of 1893, and migrants rushed into the area. Boiling Springs State Park, named for its artesian springs that seem to boil, has been established east of the city.


Federal dockets were held annually in November through 1948, and sporadically at need after that. In the 1990s, Robert Stack hosted an episode of Unsolved Mysteries filmed at the old Woodward Hospital and local Theater. This episode was about the well known tornado that struck Woodward on April 9, 1947.


(Season 6, Episode 1).
