About this adventure
Located within Faust Park in Chesterfield, the St. Louis Carousel is a magnificent, historic hand-carved merry-go-round originally constructed in 1921 by the renowned Gustav Dentzel Carousel Company. Housed in an enclosed, climate-controlled roundhouse building, the carousel allows families to ride warm in any winter weather. The carousel features more than 60 exquisitely carved and painted jumping horses, deer, and decorative chariots spinning to lively band organ music. Children of all ages delight in selecting their favorite horse, while accompanying parents can stand beside younger toddlers at no extra burden. The facility is fully ADA accessible with wide ramps, indoor stroller parking, and family restrooms located in the lobby, adjacent to the historic 19th-century Faust Historic Village.
