La. museum newest member of Great River Road Network

The Louisiana Great River Road Museum and Interpretive Center on the grounds of Houmas House Estate and Gardens is the newest member of the Great River Road Network of Museums and Interpretive Centers.
The 35,000-square-foot museum is a state-of-the-art, $15 million facility chronicling the history and telling life stories along the lower Mississippi River from Baton Rouge through New Orleans to the mouth of the river.
“It’s an honor to have one of Louisiana’s newest museums added to this distinguished list. Houmas House and the Louisiana Great River Road Museum are wonderful attractions drawing visitors from around the nation and across the world,” said Lt. Gov. Billy Nungesser. “It’s an impressive place and I believe this distinction will only help increase tourism numbers to the River Parishes via bus tour groups, as well as riverboat cruises offered by Viking Cruises and American Cruise Lines.”
