About Old Courthouse
The Old Courthouse is a meaningful and must-see part of the Gateway Arch National Park, adding nice scenic charm. This beautifully preserved, well-maintained museum features very interesting and informative educational exhibits. The interior dome view is beautiful and quite impressive, with art and photos around the room. Visitors can see historic courtrooms, though only the first two floors are accessible to the public. Entry is free. The National Parks staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Many recommend visiting close to sunset for a lovely view of the Arch from the exhibition rooms.
