Lourdes Grotto at Poche Plantation
The Lourdes Grotto offers a quiet place for reflection within the historic River Road setting of Poche Plantation. Visitors and overnight guests can make it part of a peaceful walk through the grounds or pair the experience with the historic church, mansion, and museum.
A Quiet Space for Reflection
Please approach the grotto and surrounding areas thoughtfully. Keep voices low, supervise children, respect other visitors, and follow any posted guidance. Photography and group activity should never interrupt private reflection, services, events, maintenance, or areas that have been temporarily closed.
Confirm Access & Accessibility
Contact the Poche Plantation office before traveling to confirm current access, directions within the property, accessibility conditions, and any group arrangements. Because the grounds support lodging, tours, and private events, access to individual features may vary.
