City Museum is a privately owned and operated museum in the Washington Avenue Loft District of St. Louis, Missouri, United States. Its exhibits consist largely of repurposed architectural and industrial objects, housed in the former International Shoe building. It opened in October 1997. The museum was acquired by Premier Parks LLC based in Oklahoma City in January 2019.

The City Museum has been named one of the "great public spaces" by the Project for Public Spaces, and has won other local and international awards as a must-see destination. In 2025, readers of USA Today ranked it ninth on a list of the country's "Best Immersive Art Experiences" and a runner-up for "Best Children's Museum". It has also been described as "a wild, singular vision of an oddball artistic mind."
