The Bolduc House Museum and LeMeilleur House – Two Centuries, Two Homes, One Remarkable Story In the heart of Ste. Genevieve’s Historic District, two neighboring houses tell one of the most compelling stories in American frontier history. The Louis Bolduc House and the LeMeilleur House, separated by just a few decades and a few yards, offer visitors a rare opportunity to witness how French Creole culture evolved during the pivotal years when the Mississippi Valley transitioned from colonial outpost to American heartland. Together, these homes create a living timeline of cultural adaptation, architectural evolution, and the persistence of identity in the face of dramatic change. The Louis Bolduc House: Portrait of Prosperity in French Colonial America The Man Behind the House Louis Bolduc wasn’t just a homeowner—he was a force in colonial Ste. Genevieve’s economic and social life. As a prosperous French Creole merchant, Bolduc built his fortune through a combination of fur trading, lead mining interests, agricultural production, and general merchandising. His business networks stretched from New Orleans up the Mississippi and Missouri rivers, connecting Ste. Genevieve to broader colonial commerce. But Bolduc’s influence extended beyond business. He served as a community leader, helping to govern this frontier settlement Read more…

Living History at the Linden House – Step Into the Past Every Saturday from late March through early November, the Linden House opens its doors to offer something rare and wonderful: the chance to experience French Creole colonial life not as distant history locked behind velvet ropes, but as living, breathing, tactile reality. This isn’t passive observation—it’s active engagement with the past, where visitors of all ages can touch, try, and truly understand how people lived, worked, and entertained themselves in early 19th-century Ste. Genevieve. A House That Tells Many Stories The Linden House itself embodies the layered history of Ste. Genevieve. Built in stages from 1811/1812 through the 1930s, the structure reflects how families adapted and expanded their homes across generations, responding to changing needs, prosperity, and architectural fashions. The earliest portions date to just after the Louisiana Purchase, when French Creole families were navigating the transition from Spanish and French rule to American governance. Later additions show how the property evolved as the 19th century progressed and eventually entered the 20th century. This architectural palimpsest—where different eras exist within a single structure—makes the Linden House particularly well-suited for living history interpretation. It’s not frozen at a single moment Read more…
