The village of White Castle sits in the shadow of a levee on the Mississippi River, in the middle of Louisiana's Plantation Country. Nearby Nottoway Plantation is the big draw to White Castle, and it stands apart as the largest intact plantation in the South. White Castle is not named for Nottoway, but for a namesake plantation home that was removed due to flooding; White Castle Plantation's original site now sits below the Mississippi River.
Explore "The Myrtles - America's Most Haunted House" and the beautifully restored Butler Greenwood Plantation. Then walk through St. Francisville, enjoying its charming churches, antique stores, and historic buildings.
Be amazed by one of the oldest cities on the Mississippi, founded in 1716. See antebellum and Victorian structures that sit high on a bluff. Explore the historical Frogmore Plantation and its rare cotton gin.
Explore sprawling Vicksburg National Military Park, with its battlefields, statues, and monuments to soldiers from both the North and South. A moving experience.
