Krug Park.

Krug Park is located in Saint Joseph at the northernmost end of Parkway St. Joseph. It boasts extensive landscaping and flowerbeds as well as Italian Renaissance-style structures. The park is a popular spot for both residents and visitors to the city. There are many things you can do in the park, including a nature walk, a playground and a café.

Krug, a family that donated 140 acres in 1936 to the park, gave the park its current layout and size. The park has seen many improvements over the years, including a castle playground, and a wading swimming pool. One of the most impressive outdoor light displays in Northwest Missouri is located in the park.

Krug Park's entry is marked by a stone conservatory and a gateway. Krug Park opened its doors on May 6, 1902. Krug Park was home to alligators as well as exotic animals. Old war cannons were also found in the park, as well as the Robidoux Cabin, which was claimed to belong to Joseph Robidoux.

Krug Park is a favorite attraction in St. Joseph. Krug Park is transformed into a magical lighted castle during holidays. The park can be explored by visitors at no cost. To help maintain the park and add new exhibits, donations are welcome. More than 100,000 people visit the park each year.
