The museum was closed and won't be open until next year, which was a bummer, but we still got to see and walk the mounds. There are signage along the way to give you information about it. Still a great experience!

This is an interesting historical place to visit. There are walking paths around the area where the smaller mounds are, and a lot of steps to go to the top of Monks Mound. The scenery from the top is fun to see as well. Not much shade on the grounds. The museum and visitor center was closed when we visited in June 2024. It will be nice when it's open again and people can find out more about the Native Americans that used this site.

Outstanding archaeological complex with an amazing history, but unfortunately, there is no crosswalk or pedestrian bridge across the 4-lane highway between the visitors center and Monk Mound, making it difficult to get between the two if you plan on walking.

This is some of the most beautiful greenery I've ever seen in my life. This is a great place to walk around on a day with nice weather. It is so peaceful and the view of the city of St. Louis from atop Mound Monks is georgous.

Amazing experience and views. Museum was closed. Be sure to check hours but the Mound was available to walk up, of course. Pace yourself and don't do it if there's a storm coming. :-)
