Scott Joplin, "the King of Ragtime", brought his new wife to St. Louis in 1900 and moved into this brick flat. The flat is now a museum and is furnished how Scott Joplin would have lived in it. The house is also a museum of Scott Joplin's life and his musical work as a composer, as well as showing what St. Louis was like during the ragtime era.
Tours of the home are available for a fee. See website for current days and hours.
