We want to hear from you! Please contact us with questions about our history, your home, or any building of interest. Let us know if you have items to donate.



We would love for you to join our organization!  Your membership provides you with quarterly newsletters to keep you informed and helps our organization put on events throughout the year.​

From our city's incorporation in 1906 by extraordinary entrepreneur, city founder and planner Edward Gardner Lewis, to ‘The Loop’, one of St. Louis’ favorite entertainment and shopping spots, our society is dedicated to preserving our history. We have many books and pamphlets on our history, which may be purchased here.

The Historical Society of University City collects, preserves and shares the history of University City.  We hold events and create publications that celebrate our city's great past.
