MO 94 west of Marthasville has a rural historic district

The Starke-Meinershagen-Boeke Rural Historic District marks a farmstead layer along MO 94 west of Marthasville.

The stretch of Warren County near Marthasville is often described through wineries, the Katy Trail, and Daniel Boone. The Starke-Meinershagen-Boeke Rural Historic District adds a farmstead layer to that same corridor.

Missouri State Parks’ Warren County National Register page places the district on MO 94, five miles west of Marthasville, and lists it as the Starke-Meinershagen-Boeke Rural Historic District. The state-hosted National Register material gives the district its official preservation context.

For readers, the point is not to turn the county page into a driving tour. It is to show that Warren County’s Missouri River side includes rural historic places as well as trailheads, wineries, and modern commuter edges.
