Hermann-Grima Historic House Guided Tour Ticket

Overview

This restored French Quarter home built in 1831, includes a Federalist architectural façade, original operating open-hearth kitchen, urban slave quarters, and expansive courtyard. The Urban Enslavement Tour at Hermann-Grima House, looks at the experiences of those who were enslaved in an urban setting, how that differed from those enslaved in rural settings, and how the contributions of people of African descent have shaped New Orleans. Condé Nast Traveler voted it one of the best tours in New Orleans and the only tour listed from a museum. We believe that nothing tells a story like a home. In addition, the property’s 19th-century carriage house is home to the The Exchange Shop, originally founded in the 1881 by The Woman’s Exchange and one of the oldest women-led non-profits in the South.

Exceptional value for money with one of the most experienced and knowledgeable tour guides (Katy) who was incredibly generous with her time as the tour went over due to many questions that she expertly answered. What a hidden gem.

I love history so while in the city, our family stepped back in time almost 200 years. Our guide was very knowledgeable and offered new insights into urban slavery. It was a packed hour and I’d highly recommend going.
