Overview

WEST-AFRICAN Captured for their agricultural and construction skills, their work created the Louisiana colony and influenced all segments of the newly-forming Creole culture, best seen today in language, cuisine, music, family-centered traditions, architecture and life-style. This sugarcane plantation started in 1805 with 7 enslaved people (six west-Africans and one Amerindian). As the plantation grew, so did the number of enslaved workers. Four original slave cabins built in the 1840s remain standing today on the plantation. By the onset of the Civil War, 186 workers were enslaved on this farm. Following the emancipation of slaves in Louisiana (1866), the great majority of these former slaves continued to live in the Laura Plantation quarters. Descendants of these men & women were displaced in 1895 when cypress lumber companies had their own workers inhabit the Laura slave quarters. The cabins were lived in until 1977. Descendants of slaves live near the Laura Plantation to this day.

Enlightening experience

Published on Dec, 2024

This was our first plantation of the 2-plantation tour we took. I liked this one better because it wasn't just, "Look at the beautiful home", it was, "This family is like a soap opera"! Yes, it was beautiful & I prefer the Creole style of this plantation to the American style of the Oak Plantation, but, more importantly, remember that this was built by slaves. Lindie was an excellent tour guide who ended the tour with a personal touch about her own family in relation to how the slaves were freed & ended up being stuck with no where else to go because they, sadly, didn't know any better. Her grandmother is Creole & she basically highlighted how slavery still affects non-whites to this very day.

Laura plantation tour

Published on Apr, 2024

Our tour guide gave a very nuanced, historically accurate description of life on the plantation, from the plantation owners to the enslaved people. Learned more here than I ever did in school

Thank You (Again) Brian with Crescent City Tours!

Must Do

Brian was actually the star of this tour for me. Especially with the heavy nature of the tour for me personally. Overall, the plantation tour itself was just okay, but the ride to and from was a great delight!
