Civil War Sesquicentennial

The sesquicentennial of the Civil War is upon us!  There are important events being planned for the entirety of the Civil War 150th anniversary, including a driving trail throughout the South County area.  (To read an article related to the driving trail, click here.)  

The Soldiers Memorial will host signature events related to St. Louis Civil War commemorations in 2012 and 2014.  

 

Thank you to St. Louis Master Gardeners!

14-inch televisions and VCRs

Do you have a 14-inch television with a connected VCR lying around?  If so, and if you don't think you'll ever use it again, bring it down to Soldiers Memorial!  We would love to be able to play tapes relating to our exhibits in the galleries. 

Thank you for your support!

(If you have questions, feel free to call us at 314-622-4550)
