I myself am not much of a history buff, but this place is incredible. To be able to walk the grounds and compare it to what it once was, really helps put its size in perspective. Take time to go through the center and watch the movie. It's well worth the time. Very educational.
Free, informative and fun

This is a must see if you live in or around this area or are traveling through. The cost for admission into the museum is free. It really is a neat interpretive center. You also can take a walk outside to look at and walk up the mounds. Take advantage of this free attraction!
Interesting Heritage Site

Cahokia Mounds has been designated a World Heritage Historic Site by UNESCO. The mounds were created by Native American residents of the region near St. Louis. Many of the mounds near St. Louis were destroyed during development of the city. However, these mounds still stand. They are pretty impressive. One mound is particularly large. You can climb to the top of the mound for a good view of St. Louis' Gateway Arch. The visitor center is very informative. Inside the visitor center is a recreation of a Cahokian village. Cahokia Mounds is an interesting place and is worth a visit.
