Such a quaint museum, and I learned WAY more than I expected. As someone from out of state, I…read moreobviously didn't grow up learning much about Missouri history, so it was really interesting getting to see the state's story from a local perspective. They also had a centennial exhibit, which was especially fun for me because Philadelphia has been doing so many events around its 250th anniversary. I love seeing how different places celebrate these big historical milestones. And did I mention it's FREE? I will never complain about a free museum. Honestly, I'm not picky. If you give me a museum I can wander around and learn things in without paying admission, I'm happy. There are also charging plugs around the museum, which is such a small thing but SO appreciated when your phone is dying halfway through a visit. The airplane hanging from the ceiling is also really cool and definitely one of those things that makes you stop and look up. The whole place has a really nice, relaxed vibe. It's quiet, there's plenty to learn, and there are places to sit and rest when you need a break. I really enjoyed just wandering around at my own pace. Free, educational, peaceful, and actually interesting. That's pretty much everything I want in a museum.

This time we saw a special exhibition on the former Mill Creek neighborhood - a black community that was demolished in the early 1950's in the name of urban renewal. The exhibit showed what existed before the City's attempts at urban renewal. We also saw exhibits on historical America, Made in St. Louis, and some general historical stuff. The museum is well worth a visit.

Parking is free if you're a member, if not you'll be charged unless you walk over , shuttle or park somewhere else nearby free.

The kid in me would come back repeatedly . Lol

We were worried he would be scared, but he was so happy lol. The rest of the museum was pretty cool, but it focuses more on older kids so the small ones didn't have much to interact with. The outdoor area about agriculture was nice (there are chickens!) and a giant tractor to play on. Another interesting part was past the bridge called the Vault. It was just collections over time, and all over the world. If you have time to spend all day, it would be cool, but we're going to wait a little bit until my toddler is older. Parking is $15, but not bad compared elsewhere.

The house itself is that last remaining piece of the original neighborhood which originally stood outside of city limits. The docent was knowledgeable, welcoming, and gave what felt like an insider's look into the Campbell family highlighting original family belongings. My favorite pieces include a gas lamp that illuminates beautifully (seriously stunning) and massive portait of James A. Campbell with his dogs. Oh -- and the ornate toilet. I recommend a visit at Christmas time. The house is beautifully decorated for the holidays and you might just get to see and HEAR a special Christmas tree stand/music box!

We didn't know if we could get on the tour that day so we first stopped by to see it and take some pictures. We met an intern and found out that we could get in on a tour about 2 hours later. So we paid our fee and went to see Frank Lloyd Wright's mentor, Louis Sullivan's Wainwright Building in downtown St. Louis. I believe this is one of Sullivan's best work still standing. When we returned for the tour I was stunned. This is a great, late house by Wright that has many magical and playful elements to it. It's has most of the original furnishings and something totaling unexpected in a Usonian house--art glass windows. The tour guide was new and did an excellent. Everyone involved in this project should be very proud of the work they've done, and continue to do.

She was very knowledgeable about Wright and Russell and Ruth Kraus who the house was built for and the only residents. The Kraus house is one of the very few Wright houses that have not been remodeled and contains the original furniture designed by Wright. It has a cozy feel from the time you walk inside. I was intrigued by the esthetic design throughout the home.
