What is Missing?

The history of Ste. Genevieve is as diverse and complex as its residents. Sharing the different perspectives of those who have lived in this vibrant and everchanging community is an ongoing process that is never complete. As a result, the history as it is presented here is true, but not complete either. As we continue our research and add to this website, we are working toward reflecting a more inclusive understanding of Ste. Genevieve.   

Curious about a particular aspect of Ste. Genevieve’s history? You are always welcome to ask questions by emailing us, giving us a call, or chatting with a park ranger during your visit.
