The City National Bank of Sulphur Springs was chartered in 1889 making it the oldest banking institution in Hopkins  County. As of June 2024 it has grown to 241 employees at 17 locations. It is the 75th largest bank in the State of Texas.  

In March of 1889 the lot on the square and Connally Street was purchased for $3,350.00, and the two-story building,  which housed the bank until 1968, was opened for business in June 1889. The original vault door is still in use today and  is in perfect working order. 

1993 saw growth in the bank outside Hopkins County with the opening of a branch in Winnsboro. The South Town  Branch was opened in 1998 by acquiring First National Bank; and, a separate Mortgage Branch was opened in 2000.  With acquisitions and openings the bank has a strong presence in the Northeast Texas Counties of Hopkins, Franklin,  Rains, Van Zandt and Wood. 

The Dinner Bell Feeding Ministry has been blessed with a Partnership with City National Bank since June 8, 2016. For a  number of years the bank has supplied financial support and personnel to serve meals on a quarterly basis. 

We plan to continue inside dining every Wednesday with the exception of the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, Christ mas and New Years Day.
