Living St. Louis Producer Jim Kirchherr goes underground for a rare tour of the Cherokee Cave. Located in South St. Louis, under the old Lemp Brewery, these caves were at one time used to store the Lemp beer. And back in the 1880s, this wealthy family added a swimming pool and performance stage to the cave for their personal use. Since then, most of the cave's entrances have been sealed shut, but paleontologists continue to do research on the fossils and bones that remain.

Before entering the caves visitors went into a room filled with historic music boxes. The cave was beautiful, with striking beautiful rooms, cool and damp. The cave did a good business in tourists. I vaguely remember an emergency exist with a large metal staircase structure under it. With three major amusement parks, the Admiral on the MIssissippi River, Forest Park and all it encompassed, St. Louis was heaven to grow up in.

If you are in St.Louis, visit Cherokee street. One long walk of antiques & junk, old books, who knows. Has historical buildings, with explanatory plaques. Also has a large Mexican population (for St. Louis) therefore, some decent taco or tamale stands.
