Sophia M. Sachs Butterfly House

The Butterfly House is home to over 60 tropical butterfly species and over 150 tropical plants, in our enclosed 8,000 square foot Tropical Conservatory. This breath-taking garden habitat, combined with the beauty of the butterflies, is the heart of the Butterfly House. The entire facility, which also includes an insect zoo, classrooms, theater space, and a seasonal Native Butterfly Garden, is open year round. The Butterfly House does close briefly, each January, for annual maintenance.

Tickets can be purchased online or in person at the Butterfly House.

Admission is $8 per person age 13 and up, $5 kids 3-12, and free for kids 2 and under.

St. Louis City/County residents enjoy free admission to the Butterfly House on the first Tuesday of every month for the first two hours after opening. Proof of residency is required.
