Welcome to Ste. Genevieve

Escape to the warmth of this historic and progressive city. estled within the scenic bluffs and rolling agricultural lands along the mighty Mississippi River, the city of Ste. Genevieve, Missouri, is truly a place of pleasant contrasts. It’s a place to celebrate American history while reaching for a bright future; a place of rural, small-town charms that offers modern convenience and infrastructure; an excellent location to visit for a weekend, or to reside for a lifetime.

Few cities can lay claim to such a longstanding and wonderfully preserved heritage as Ste. Genevieve. In fact, it is the only original French Colonial city remaining in the United States, and many of the early structures can still be seen and appreciated today. But embracing its rich history doesn’t make this city a place of the past. Beyond Ste. Genevieve’s historic core you’ll find progress that displays how the pioneering spirit of its earliest inhabitants lives on. Modern factories, state-of-the-art health care, and progressive educational institutions bear witness to

the fact that this is a vibrant and sustainable city moving forward into a better tomorrow.

Part of Ste. Genevieve’s charm is that it offers an escape from the hassles of big cities without a feeling of isolation. It’s a small-town environment where people know their neighbors and business owners know their local customers by name. Friendly neighborhoods and safe streets are a way of life here, yet many quaint shops and wonderful dining options are just around the corner. And all of this exists within easy driving distance of larger towns and less than an hour from the attractions of St. Louis and Cape Girardeau, making Ste. Genevieve a convenient place to find a care-free lifestyle without sacrificing access to anything you might desire.

So bonjour! Bienvenue à Ste. Geneviève — welcome to our city of heritage and hope. We’re sure that once you experience the enchantment and warmth our town has to offer, you’ll want to return again and again. That is, of course, if you ever decide to leave at all.

erched on the west bank of the Mississippi River, the village of Ste. Genevieve was settled in the late 1740s approximately two miles south of its present location.

The village was one of several important French communities forming a region known as the “Illinois Country,” part of the vast territory held

by France in North America at the time. Many of Ste. Genevieve’s earliest residents were FrenchCanadian habitants who farmed the rich, alluvial soil adjacent to the village and produced salt and lead from nearby creeks and mines.

Major events impacted Ste. Genevieve when, in 1762 at the close of the French and Indian War, France ceded all her holdings west of the Mississippi River to Spain. Despite the transfer and new Spanish government in the region, Ste. Genevieve retained its distinctive French character and language. A disastrous flood in 1785 triggered the gradual relocation of the village to higher ground between the forks of Gabouri Creek, the site of present-day Ste. Genevieve.

Much of historic Ste. Genevieve’s charm and ambience is due to the remarkable preservation of the features of that colonial settlement. Narrow streets and fenced gardens surround some of the most significant 18th-century architecture in America. These French Colonial

buildings were constructed from massive logs, hewn and set vertically to form the walls of the home. Heavy timbers were mortised and pegged into sturdy trusses that supported the impressive hipped roof covering the house and its wide porches. Fascinating variations of this architectural style, known as poteaux-en-terre and poteaux-sur-sole, are found in the historic homes of colonial Ste. Genevieve, as well as in Quebec and Normandy. Historians and architects continue to study these buildings’ true links with our French Colonial past.

As the Louisiana Purchase of 1803 propelled Ste. Genevieve into another chapter in history, its French-speaking residents suddenly found themselves citizens of the United States. Soon the rush of Americans into the Louisiana Territory left its mark in Ste. Genevieve. Merchants, lawyers, and entrepreneurs settled in the village, building their homes and businesses among the old French houses, creating the delightful mix of early 19th-century architecture found today.

German immigrants in the mid 19th century left a legacy of charming brick homes and stores throughout the community.

Today Ste. Genevieve’s National Landmark Historic District offers visitors an unparalleled glimpse into its Colonial past. Its residents join together to preserve and interpret this most remarkable community.

Health Care & Senior Living

State-of-the-art medical techniques administered by caring hands.

Jefferson Regional Medical Center new surgical hospital Highway 61 South, Crystal City 636-933-1000 :: www.jhsmo.com

On Oct. 4, 2010, Dr. Steven Kurzweil completed the first procedure in the new Surgical Hospital at Jefferson Regional Medical Center.

The facility is the first in Missouri dedicated specifically to state-of-the-art surgical procedures for outpatients and those who will be hospitalized for up to three days of recovery time.

The new, 25,000-square-foot Surgical Hospital is directly across the street from Jefferson Regional Medical Center. It’s another example of continued excellence for inpatient and outpatient surgery patients.

“It’s a fantastic facility that is ready to meet the needs of our community,” says Pam Pearch, R.N., director of surgical services. “Our mission is to provide the best surgical services possible and streamline care, so our patients can quickly return to enjoying a fuller and richer life.”

In addition to four operating rooms and two endoscopy rooms, the Surgical Hospital features 15 private patient rooms — each with a private bathroom.

“The Surgical Hospital is an excellent choice for same-day surgery patients and those who require a short stay in the hospital,” Pearch says.

“We also have the capabilities to comfortably

accommodate a family member who wishes to stay overnight with a loved one.”

In addition to new equipment and the latest technologies, the Surgical Hospital features decentralized nursing stations and alcoves outside the rooms for the nurses to monitor patients on a one-to-one basis.

“Decentralized nurses stations are designed to keep the nurse closer to the patient for more personalized care,” Pearch says. “We focus on providing needed care to get our patients back to their lives.”

In addition to Dr. Kurzweil, all surgeons with privileges at Jefferson Regional Medical Center may complete procedures at the new Surgical Hospital.
