Jefferson Memorial and the Gateway Arch are very special to our city. Check out the free Lewis and Clark exhibit underneath the Arch- great for kids and history buffs- and don’t miss the historic courthouse where Dred and Harriet Scot fought for their freedom. The one-hour riverboat cruise on the Mississippi River is narrated by a park ranger and provides a great view of the city and its history. http://www.gatewayarch.com/Arch/info/act.aspx
