Cragwold, Historic estate in St. Louis County, Missouri, United States
The Cragwold estate spans 103 acres and features an 11,000-square-foot residence with a central atrium filled with tropical plants and birds.
Built in 1911 for Edwin A. Lemp, Cragwold joined the National Register of Historic Places in 2009 as one of four German-American estates near Meramec River.
The residence demonstrates Arts and Crafts movement principles through its architectural elements and integration with the natural surroundings of St. Louis County.
The property stands adjacent to Emmenegger Nature Park and remains under private ownership, requiring advance arrangements for any potential visits.
During the 1920s, Cragwold functioned as a Federal Game Farm, housing exotic birds and ungulates from multiple continents in its expanded grounds.
