Description

Towering slides, hidden tunnels, and massive climbing structures transform City Museum St. Louis into one of the Midwest’s most imaginative attractions. Inside a former downtown St. Louis shoe factory, nearly 600,000 square feet of artist-built installations rise from salvaged architectural pieces, industrial artifacts, and unexpected objects.

With City Museum St. Louis tickets, you can climb through sculptural structures made from reclaimed materials, crawl through winding passageways, and glide down multi-story slides connecting different floors. More than 30 slides wind through the museum, including a dramatic five-story spiral slide and a 10-story tower rising through the center of the building.

Explore cavern-like tunnels filled with mythical sculptures, navigate the outdoor MonstroCity installation built from repurposed airplanes and fire trucks, or browse unusual collections of architectural fragments and artifacts. Hands-on spaces like Art City encourage creativity, while the Artquarium features both live and sculptural aquatic creatures.

The fourth-floor Labyrinth installation adds a twisting maze built from reclaimed industrial pieces and hidden surprises.

Some attractions, including the rooftop area, Ferris wheel, and Pinball Hall, require an additional fee at the museum. With four floors of installations, slides, and hidden spaces, City Museum St. Louis rewards curiosity at every turn.
