Tour Details

Soulard is famous for its historic brick streets, Mardi Gras celebrations, and lively nightlife, but every neighborhood has stories it doesn't put on display. As we explore one of St. Louis' oldest neighborhoods, you'll hear about the people and events that left their mark on Soulard, uncovering a side of its history hidden behind the restaurants, taverns, and historic buildings.
