Frenchtown is perhaps the most eclectic and unique of the St. Charles historic neighborhoods.  It was founded by French Settlers in 1769. On March 14th, 1991, the Frenchtown District of St. Charles, Missouri became a National Trust Historic District. The Historic Frenchtown Association is diligently working to revitalize the area.

Recent improvements include the restoration of many historc buildings, planting trees on Second Street, encouraging new shops to locate to the area and the long awaited roundabout.  

The organization is accomplishing one goal after another thanks to our many visitors, volunteers, and supporters.

May you, like earlier visitors and settlers, find those threads which pull us back in time and create a tapestry of people, places and events which you can make your own. Enjoy!
