Apresentação geral
Great Rivers and Cahokia
Great landscapes of Mississippi, monumental Aboriginal heritage and small river towns facing Saint-Louis.
To understand what Great Rivers and Cahokia are, you need to look at Cahokia Mounds, Pere Marquette State Park and Lewis and Clark Confluence Tower. These places give us a view of a territory marked by riverscapes, heritage and countryside and allow us to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.

Place indismissible
Cahokia Mounds
Cahokia Mounds preserves the mounds of a large pre-Columbian Amerindian city, which Monks Mound still measures from the plain. As we climb up the embankments, we distinguish the alignments, ceremonial spaces and the current proximity of Saint-Louis. The site strikes by this contrast between an almost open landscape and the memory of a missing city.

The Confluence Tower dominates the place where Missouri and Mississippi meet, giving an aerial reading of the flood plains and the riparian islands. The platforms serve as viewpoints to follow the curves of the two rivers and imagine the departures of exploration.
