Review:
Faust Park is situated on grounds that belonged to the second governor of Missouri, Frederick Bates. The first 98.5 acres of land were donated by the Faust family in 1968 and a similar sized extension in 1996. To add to the existing buildings, historic homes were moved to the land from Chesterfield and elsewhere. The Historic Village is open during select weekends in spring and summer, when staff dress in period costumes. An original 1920s St Louis Carousel is housed at the park in an indoor, temperature- and humidity-controlled venue. There is a carousel gift shop.
