About Gateway Arch National Park
Gateway Arch National Park in St. Louis celebrates the westward expansion of the United States. The 630-foot Gateway Arch, designed by architect Eero Saarinen, is the tallest man-made monument in the United States. Visitors can ride a unique tram system to an observation deck at the top for views up to 30 miles in every direction. The park includes a museum exploring the history of westward expansion and Native American cultures, as well as the Old Courthouse where the Dred Scott case was heard.
