Czego oczekiwać

Muzeum Wolnych Kolorowych Ludzi
Muzeum Wolnych Kolorowych Ludzi przechowuje trzystuletnią historię i kulturę wolnych kolorowych ludzi w Nowym Orleanie. Muzeum bada ich historię, począwszy od 1708 roku. Galeria frontowa przedstawia kronikę pierwszych 100 lat, w tym okres pod panowaniem hiszpańskim, 1763-1800, kiedy niewolnicy mogli czasem wykupić swoją wolność. Jeden z najbardziej poruszających eksponatów obejmuje sięgającą od podłogi do sufitu petycję skierowaną do prezydenta Abrahama Lincolna, datowaną 5 stycznia 1864 r., od 1000 wolnych kolorowych mężczyzn, którzy byli właścicielami nieruchomości w Nowym Orleanie.

Dzielnica Ogrodowa
Garden District ma kolekcję dobrze zachowanych zabytkowych rezydencji, które zostały zbudowane przez bogatych przybyszów do Nowego Orleanu. Obszar ten został opracowany w latach 1832-1900 i ma różnorodną mieszankę domów, sklepów z antykami, barów, kawiarni, ogrodów, parków i restauracji.

Cmentarz św. Ludwika nr 3
Cmentarz St. Louis nr 3, znany również jako Cmentarz Anioła, znajduje się na terenie, który kiedyś był domem dla kolonii trędowatych. Luizjana od dawna gości społeczności ofiar trądu, a ten cmentarz powstał jako miejsce pochówku dla tych, którzy zmarli na tę chorobę w Nowym Orleanie. Kilkadziesiąt lat później, w 1854 r., szczególnie niszczycielska epidemia żółtej febry sprawiła, że ​​miasto potrzebowało 8000 miejsc pochówku, więc księża z katedry św. Ludwika zakupili ziemię pod kolejny bardzo potrzebny cmentarz katolicki.

Museum of the Free People of Color
The Museum of the Free People of Color preserves the three hundred-year history and culture of free people of color in New Orleans. The museum explores their history beginning in 1708. The front gallery chronicles the first 100 years, including the period under Spanish rule, 1763 to 1800, when slaves were sometimes allowed to purchase their freedom. One of the most moving exhibits includes a floor-to-ceiling petition to President Abraham Lincoln, dated Jan. 5, 1864, from 1,000 free men of color who were New Orleans property owners.

Garden District
The Garden District has a collection of well preserved historic mansions that were built by wealthy newcomers to New Orleans. The area was developed between 1832 and 1900 and has a diverse mix of homes, antique shops, bars, cafes, gardens, parks and restaurants.

St. Louis Cemetery No. 3
St. Louis Cemetery #3 is also known as The Angel Cemetery is located on ground that once was home to a leper colony. Louisiana has long hosted communities for the victims of leprosy and this cemetery began as a burial ground for those who died of the disease in New Orleans. Decades later, in 1854, a particularly devastating yellow fever epidemic left the city more in need of 8,000 burial plots so the priests at St. Louis Cathedral purchased the land for another sorely needed Catholic cemetery.

This tour is just perfect for walkers, cyclists or even motorists. The stops are beautiful and engaging. I especially loved hearing about the Free People of Color in New Orleans as well as the less well known tales of the Luling Mansion.

GREAT tour of a beautiful and historic NO. neighborhood The narrator is a native and folds in personal references that authenticate the tour--unlike many other tour guides. I also like that I can stop it and dwell on the beauty of an old home or historic site before moving on just by operating my phone...certainly better than following a person in a group pf 10-12 when much is missed. Cannot beat it for 5 bucks, and you'll go away appreciating the city much more.

We are locals and this is one of our favorite spots in the city - but to really dive in and intently walk the streets of the Esplanade Ridge was absolutely incredible! We learned so very much and at our own pace could really digest the intricacies and fascinating history of the area. We loved the small details, folklore and stories that really brought the area alive for us. You could imagine the residents in each house sipping a cognac and telling tales in the parlor ! We celebrated at the incomparable Cafe Degas and we simply cannot recall a more pleasant Saturday afternoon! The rich history is brought to life in a way that few other venues can offer. This is a must do!!!
