    St. Louis Gay City Guide: What to Know if You’re Headed to the Gateway City

    St. Louis is a city known for many things. It’s the house of the St. Louis Cardinals, Budweiser Brewing Company, the known Gateway Arch, and gooey butter cake, among other things. It’s also a city becoming increasingly well-known for its warm, welcoming, and continually growing LGBTQ people that adds so much to the character and personality of the city itself. It’s truly a multi-cultural midwestern city where everyone can find their place.

    A Look at St. Louis History

    The modern-day history of St. Louis began in 1764 when French settlers established a fur-trading send in the area. Construction of a village began the monitoring year, and the village was named St. Louis, after King Louis IX of France. As a result of the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, St. Louis officially became part of the United States. Shortly thereafter, St. Louis gained fame as the point from which Lewis and Clark embarked on their exploration of the newly acquired Louisiana Purchase territories. It was officially incorporated as a city in 1832 and grew steadily as a center of commerce and trade from that point on.
