Poche Plantation Bed and Breakfast and Guided Tours

house.jpg Located less than an hour from New Orleans, on Majestic River Road, the Poche Plantation hosts a bed and breakfast and guided tours at this Louisiana plantation home that has been beautifully restored to its original splendor. A plantation house recently enjoyed by overnight guests ranging from well known Civil War historians to the business elite, the Poche Plantation is now open to the public for guided tours and bed and breakfast lodgings in surrounding cottages for the first time since its construction in the late 1800s.

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places

The last of the great Mississippi River plantations to be constructed, the Poche Plantation house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places both for its architectural importance and as the residence of Judge Felix Pierre Poche. The Poche Plantation is an example of the Victorian Renaissance Revival raised plantation house - an unusual style because most plantation houses were constructed under the influence of Greek Revival architecture. Felix Pierre Poche is most famous for his Civil War diary which remains an important scholarly source of information with a Confederate outlook on the war.
