Missouri Civil War Museum

A Cake divided can not stand.

If any state represents the War Between The States it is Missouri. During the war the state itself was bitterly divided. The Dred Scott Decision was past down right here in St Louis and our state gave title to The Missouri Compromise. Lincoln spent much time in the area and Grant lived here.

The Missouri Civil War Museum is a great place to start on a personal journey through one of darkest periods of our history. Every so often there is a Civil War reenactment at Jefferson Barracks and it is a good place to see period weapons in use and infantry drills preformed.
