Iconic Historic Landmark for Sale: The Lemp Mansion
Business Description
Now available for the first time in decades, the world-famous Lemp Mansion offers a rare opportunity to own one of St. Louis's most storied and profitable historic properties. Built in the 1860s as the home of the Lemp Brewing family, the mansion has operated for over 50 years as a beloved restaurant, inn, and event destination with a loyal regional and national following. The turnkey business includes a full-service restaurant and bar, boutique overnight inn rooms, and elegant indoor event spaces throughout the mansion, complemented by a tented patio and gazebo for outdoor ceremonies and receptions. Long celebrated as "Famous from Ghost to Ghost," the property has a devoted following built around its reputation as one of the most haunted locations in America. Recurring programming — including comedy-mystery dinner theater, murder mystery dinners, bingo nights, guided haunted tours, escape rooms, and scavenger hunts — generates consistent revenue year-round beyond weddings and private events. The mansion is a recognized wedding and event destination, with strong ratings and awards from national outlets and booking platforms. This sale includes the building, grounds, tented patio, gazebo, established brand, and an extensive library of proprietary event programming. With decades of brand equity, media recognition, and a diversified revenue mix spanning food and beverage, lodging, weddings, and experiential entertainment, this is an exceptional opportunity for an owner-operator or hospitality group to acquire a self-sustaining, high-visibility landmark business.
