Museum Thornhill Estate reviews
6This is a nicely maintained home of Frederick Bates, Governor of Missouri in the 1820s. Tours are offered occasionally and are worth it if you have the time, as the house has some interesting history. The staff are clearly passionate about the house and eager to share its story with anyone who is interested.
The Botanical gardens surrounding Thornhill are stunning - it is the old governors mansion for Louisiana purchase!
Chuckwagon dinner was fabulous! Had a wonderful time and staff were so friendly! Will go again!
The 3 Ladies & a gentleman volunteers were a great wealth of knowledge. Thank you, we learned quite a bit about our new home state today. The Lady demonstrating the spinning was the best! What a treasure she is!
Wonderful place to take family for historic tours in authentic buildings preserved perfectly!
Reasonably well maintained historic home owned by Missouri Gov. Bates in 1850. Unfortunately the interior is only open on occasions, but it's quite interesting. The grounds include the home, the separate kitchen building and several outbuildings.
