Old Courthouse

The Old Courthouse, often referring to the historic building in St. Louis, Missouri, served as a center for judicial and civic activities since the 19th century. Constructed in the early 1800s, it played a key role in local government and legal proceedings. The building is architecturally significant, reflecting Greek Revival style, and is part of the Gateway Arch National Park. Today, it functions as a museum highlighting its history and the landmark Dred Scott case, which had profound implications for American justice and civil rights. It stands as a symbol of the city’s legal and historical heritage.
