Lots of amazing exhibits. A must see if you’re interested in chess at all.

I'm not a huge CHESS fan but after this visit I will be. This was a wonderful facility with a lot of support from a generous St Louis benefactor. I learned a lot about the history of chess when some of the great matches. During my midweek visit there was a free live Louisiana jazz band playing outside and on the top level another paid live music performance. Definitely worth the visit. After your tour check out the live music or explore the upscale area with many restaurants

Hi Dawn, kids love our exhibitions and gift shop! While some of our artifacts are chess-historical, many of our sets are playful, which include Super Mario, Star Trek, Marvel, etc. We also have a fun scavenger hunt for kids, and a life-sized chess set and board, too. We're free and open 7 days a week!
Hi Johnny, our apologies for the delay. We recommend the Chase Park Plaza, just down the street from the World Chess Hall of Fame and the Saint Louis Chess Club. You are welcome to sign up for casual play at the Chess Club on their website: saintlouischessclub.org
It's a very crowded square area. You might have to park on a side street. Have fun it was pretty cool. 😊♟

Hi Robert! As John mentioned, there are metered parking spots on Maryland Ave, street parking down the block, and two pay lots: one next to Kingside Diner (across the street) or at Schlafly Library around the corner. Please note that we are closed through April 12 while we install three new exhibitions. However, our gift shop, Q Boutique is open, as well as the Saint Louis Chess Club across the street. Thanks!
take it to world chess and they will help you
