#### Bring a camera when you climb this tower, which offers fantastic views across the Mississippi River and provides insight into a fascinating piece of history.

Ascend the Lewis and Clark Confluence Tower to enjoy incredible panoramic views for miles and to learn about an important event in local and national history. Discover the story of the 1804 expedition led by Captain Meriwether Lewis and Captain William Clark. This is told through exhibits at the interpretive center at the foot of the tower as well as at the tower’s three levels of viewing platforms. These viewing platforms are essential to the tower’s distinctive and unusual structure, as they join its two halves together.

At the start of the 19th century, President Thomas Jefferson ordered the expedition that is now known as the Lewis and Clark Expedition or the Corps of Discovery Expedition. The goals were to map the western part of what is now the U.S., to build trade links with Native American tribes and to learn about the area’s plants and wildlife. Led by the two captains, the expedition reached the West Coast and the Pacific Ocean. The tower opened in 2010 to commemorate this important journey. Head to the top of the tower for the ultimate view. Along the way stop at other viewing platforms that offer detailed information on the expedition.

Look out from the viewing platforms and try to spot St. Louis, which is visible on clear days although it is 19 miles (30 kilometers) away. To the northeast, get a wonderful perspective of the point where the Mississippi River meets the Illinois River.

Check what events are being held to help plan your visit. In the summer months, attend one of the shows held at the outdoor amphitheater below the tower. In winter, a special lineup of Eagle Events celebrates the national bird.

Buy tickets for the Lewis and Clark Confluence Tower and join one of the mandatory guided tours to the top of the tower. Find the site just north of the pretty Lewis and Clark Memorial Park, on the banks of the Mississippi River.
