Museum at the Gateway Arch, History museum under the Gateway Arch, St. Louis, United States.
The Museum at the Gateway Arch contains six galleries exploring the development of St. Louis and westward expansion through interactive exhibits and historical artifacts.
The museum documents St. Louis's evolution from its 1764 founding as a French trading post through the construction of the Gateway Arch in 1965.
Native American, French, and American influences merge in exhibits showcasing the diverse groups that shaped the Mississippi River region and western territories.
Located underground beneath the Gateway Arch, the museum offers free admission, accessible facilities, and direct connections to riverboat tours and arch tram rides.
The museum's Virtual Reality Theater recreates the St. Louis riverfront of the 1850s, when steamboats transformed the city into a major trade center.
