*SOLD OUT* Franz Arzt House Tour

Constructed c. 1876, the Dr. Franz Arzt House is one of the best examples of Italianate residential architecture in St. Louis. The home has been painstakingly restored over the past eight years by owners Joy and Ron Christensen after a long period of disinvestment. Come see the rebirth of one of St. Louis’ 19th-century architectural treasures, including the amazing conservatory that has been fastidiously restored based on historical photographs and the unique grotto constructed for Dr. Arzt’s renowned botanical collections. A highlight of the tour is the artificial cave system beneath the home constructed nearly 150 years ago.
