Story

Built in 1851, the first house in the elegant neighborhood Lucas Place, the Campbell House was the home of renowned fur trader and entrepreneur Robert Campbell and his family from 1854 until 1938. The museum contains hundreds of original Campbell possessions including furniture, paintings, clothing, letters, carriages and a unique set of interior photographs taken in the mid-1880s. After a monumental five-year, $3 million restoration Campbell House now stands as one of the most accurately restored 19th Century buildings in America.

If you wanna go back in history this is a place to visit. You can see how people lived in 1851 and find out about their life in those days. Its a very unique place. The guided tour was very interesting and it kinda blows you away to see the inside of the house!

If you are in St. Louis, you have to visit here. The staff takes time to explain all of the history of this house, and you'll learn a lot.
