Visite à pied du cimetière Lake Lawn Metairie

Aperçu
When you tour with non-profit Save Our Cemeteries you are helping to preserve and protect the historic cemeteries of New Orleans. Our tours are small and historically accurate.

Lake Lawn Metairie cemetery was named by Forbes as one of “America’s Best Cemeteries.”

This picturesque cemetery boasts some of the grandest funerary architecture and sculpture in the US. Live oaks surround greek temples, gothic and Islamic style tombs, obelisks, and marble monuments with beautiful ironwork and stained glass.

The resting place of many of New Orlean's most influential and notorious citizens, Metairie Cemetery holds the graves of over 9,000 people on 65 landscaped acres. Nine Louisiana governors, seven New Orleans mayors, 49 kings of Carnival, and three Confederate generals rest alongside madams, brothel owners, bandleaders Louis Prima and Al Hirt, vampire writer Anne Rice, and former Saints and Pelicans’ owner Tom Benson.

An easy walk. Wheelchair accessible.

We booked this to her directly on the website, the tour Director was very knowledgeable… More of a teen/adult-based historical tour. Lots of local New Orleans information about businesses and history of the property and the area. It was a great tour! The ONLY open cemetery tour in NOLA! Affordable too.

We were originally scheduled to do the tour Monday but due to rain were lucky to be able to reschedule to Tuesday. Our guide, Greg, was kind enough to text to let us know of the cancellation well in advance and kindly set up an alternative time with us then. Greg's tour was so informative and so much fun! Really recommend it as a fun activity for any visit to New Orleans.
