Two hundred feet below where you’re standing, is more than 6,000 acres of buried limestone.
It’s a virtual city underground that operates 24/7 bringing the limestone to the surface.
During this presentation, you’ll discover how limestone was formed; how Ste. Genevieve became a player in the limestone industry; how limestone is distributed throughout the nation; and just what limestone is used for—you wouldn’t be far off if you said just about everything!
The presentation is free to museum members. Otherwise, museum admission will apply.
