St. Charles, Missouri, is one of the oldest cities in the state, founded in 1769 by French settlers as a fur trading post and originally named “Les Petites Côtes” (The Little Hills). It played a critical role as the last “civilized” stop on the Missouri River before the vast western frontier during the early 19th century. The city’s historic Main Street reflects its rich heritage, serving as a hub for pioneers heading west on the Lewis and Clark Expedition in 1804. St. Charles also briefly served as Missouri’s first state capital from 1821 to 1826. Over the centuries, it evolved from a small river town into a bustling center of commerce and culture, preserving much of its historic charm while growing into a vibrant part of the greater St. Louis metropolitan area.
