I absolutely loved this place and the wonderful tour that I was given by Chris. She was extremely nice and knowledgeable about the history of Missouri. This location and the early history of the state are fascinating. Definitely visit this place if you want to learn about the history of St Charles and Missouri in general. I highly recommend!

Right in the heart of old St. Charles, this set of buildings represents the very first of Missouri's legislative centers. The visitor center is small, but has lots of information to share, and tours of the capitol building are on offer. You're free to roam the grounds, which includes a lovely backyard area with river views. The yard contains gardens and plantings of all kinds, as well as sitting areas and plenty of shade. The first capitol is an important part of Missouri's history, and the historic site preserves it wonderfully!

They give a nice tour of the rooms. There are antique furnishings in all of the rooms. It's a must see for history buffs. There is a small fee and a gift shop.
