The Louisiana State Museum is housed in two 18th century buildings and stands beside the St. Louis Cathedral in New Orleans. Amoung the artefacts and exhibits on view is a death mask of Napoleon, one of only three in the world. The 1850’s House in the state museum reflects the comfortable lifestyle of upscale Creole apartment dwellers in the 19th century and is furnished in the style of the period. Historic documents tabling the rich cultural diversity of New Orleans and artefacts from the ages bring the past to life and are well worth studying.

New Orleans is a great ball of diversity where you will find practically anything and everything. The Louisiana State Museum in New Orleans is the leading heritage attraction, but they all have different flavours and cannot be compared. The fabulous New Orleans Hotels will welcome you with open arms and you will never want to go home again.
