Saint Louis

Watching over Art Hill, Saint Louis keeps an eye on his realm of Forest Park and the City of St. Louis. 

At his coronation as king of France, Louis IX bound himself by oath to behave as God’s anointed, as the father of his people and feudal lord of the King of Peace. Other kings had done the same, of course. Louis was different in that he actually interpreted his kingly duties in the light of faith. After the violence of two previous reigns, he brought peace and justice.
