The Missouri History Musuem presents Things You Never Knew About the 1904 World’s Fair!

Every Thursday and Sunday afternoon, take a 25-minute “all-inclusive tour” of the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition. The home base for this talk is the mind-boggling 1:400th scale model of the Fair that shows every one of the more than 1,500 buildings spread over Forest Park in 1904. One of the knowledgeable visitor experience guides will introduce you to some of the Fair’s most colorful characters, from David Francis to Geronimo. This tour meets inside the “1904 World’s Fair” gallery on the museum's north side.
