St. Joseph

When it comes to quick escapes from Kansas City, St. Joseph is the top destination for all museumgoers. St. Joseph, like many other places on the list, is located in Missouri and is home to three distinct museums. The Glore Psychiatric Museum depicts the evolution of mental illness treatment at the State Lunatic Asylum No. 2; the Jesse James Home Museum commemorates the legacy of the notorious famed outlaw; and The Pony Express National Historic Trail and Museum commemorates the fastest mail service in the Old West.


St. Joseph also has a diverse collection of historic sites, including a large number of nineteenth-century structures on the National Register of Historic Places (perfect for those who enjoy Victorian-era architecture.) St. Joseph also has a lot to offer outdoor enthusiasts, with over 26 miles of parkway winding through the city and offering hiking and biking opportunities, as well as many open grassy spots to sit and relax.
