Missouri History Museum

History Museum · St. Louis, Missouri

The museum of the Missouri Historical Society, founded in 1866, in the Jefferson Memorial Building at the north entrance to Forest Park - which was itself built with the profits of the 1904 World's Fair and stands where the fair's main entrance was. Admission is free. The collection's two great strengths are the 1904 fair itself, of which this holds the definitive record, and Charles Lindbergh, whose trophies and Spirit of St. Louis material came here because the city funded the flight.

5700 Lindell Boulevard, St. Louis, Missouri, 63112, United States
