We are a living, working museum. The Lewis and Clark Boat House and Museum brings the remarkable journey of 1803-06 to life at our riverfront base of operations in historic St. Charles, Missouri.

"We love Lewis and Clark and your museum. We followed the trail (as Californians during the lockdowns) and your museum was the highlight of our trip.
