Located in beautiful Faust Park, the Butterfly House offers a unique, educational and fun experience for children and adults, as they learn about butterflies. A division of the Missouri Botanical Gardens, the Butterfly House contains an 8,000 square foot conservatory. This is one of the most popular areas, and it's where the butterflies fly free, as guests walk a path in a climate controlled (85 degrees, 75% humidity) environment.

Visitors can come with a friend or with family, as part of a school outing or a big celebration, like a wedding.

Memberships can be obtained through the Missouri Botanical Garden at www.mobot.org. Those interested in scheduling a private event of any kind can contact Amy Hammann or Adam Jaschek at 636-733-2339.
