History is never just one story – it’s a collection of perspectives shaped by time, experience, and who gets to tell it. “Parallel Pasts: Two Sides to Every Story” takes you through the streets of Ste. Genevieve while uncovering local history from multiple viewpoints. This tour is being offered on four Saturdays in 2025: Oct. 4 and 18 and Nov. 1 and 15.
Each tour begins at the Ste. Genevieve Welcome Center and goes through the town’s historic district before ending back at the welcome center. There are several stops along the way, including one at the Felix Vallé House. At each stop, we’ll discuss how different people experienced events in different ways – and how our understanding has evolved over the years.
This free program is presented by Missouri State Parks in collaboration with the National Park Service. Registration is required, and space is limited to 15 people per tour. Registration for each tour opens 30 days in advance and can be completed online.
