Museums - Updated: 7/5/2023



Greater St. Louis Air and Space Museum (checking to see if it is still operating)
This is a great museum in the making. Just on the other side of the river in Cahokia, 5 minutes from Downtown. This museum is a collection of personal items from many MacDonnell Douglas Retirees. Hopefully you will like to visit to support what will be a great museum.
National Great Rivers Museum
A great resource!
Missouri Mines State Historical Site Park Hills, Missouri
I love this place, but I love rocks, and I will drive 1.5 hours to see an old dilapidated mine, to look at old mining equipment, to view rocks, and to look at rocks that glow in the dark under fluorescent lighting. So, if you like those kind of things, this place is a must!!
St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Fame Museum
Haven't been here yet, have you? Great place for Cardinals and baseball fans, I am sure!
Soldier's Memorial Military Museum
Haven't been here yet, have you?

Wax Museum of St. Louis
Haven't been here yet, have you? Combine this with a visit to the Arch, the courthouse, and eat at the Spaghetti Factory on the Landing!

Health Works Museum
I wonder how many cities have their own dental health museum?
Civil War Museum
What an amazing museum in St. Louis! If you haven't seen this, you must go. Great for history buffs, students and for those who would like to know more about the Civil War.
Telephone Museum
I haven't been to this museum yet. If you have, let me know!

St. Louis Mercantile Museum
FREE
The oldest museum west of the Mississippi. Located on the UMSL campus. Open 9am-5pm.  I would recommend for upper elementary age and older.
