Museum of Illusions St. Louis
Museum of Illusions St. Louis provides an interactive experience with optical illusions and educational exhibits, suitable for all ages.
Planning your visit
The St Louis branch is a paid attraction in a city where most of the major institutions are free — Forest Park's art museum, history museum, science center and zoo all charge nothing, which is unusual in the United States and shapes how visitors budget a trip.
That context is worth knowing when planning. The illusion museum offers the brand's standard interactive perceptual exhibits, with tilted rooms, mirrored chambers, holograms and a vortex tunnel, each explained.
Its practical value is as an indoor option in a city with genuinely difficult summer humidity and cold winters, and as something aimed squarely at children between the more educational free institutions.
