Historic Church at Poche Plantation
The historic church is one of the cultural features that gives a visit to Poche Plantation a deeper sense of place. Located within the property’s River Road setting in Convent, it can be experienced alongside the historic mansion, museum, grounds, and Lourdes Grotto.
A Place for Quiet, Respectful Exploration
Historic and sacred spaces deserve thoughtful visitation. Guests should follow posted guidance, respect any areas that are closed or in use, supervise children, and avoid disrupting services, private gatherings, or other visitors. Access may vary according to events, maintenance, and current property operations.
Confirm Access Before Your Visit
Contact the Poche Plantation office to confirm whether the church is open during your visit, which areas may be viewed, and whether group or accessibility arrangements are available. The property remains an active lodging and event destination, so access cannot be assumed at all times.
