Kent Plantation House [LA]
The Kent Plantation House, completed in 1800, presents a typical Creole working plantation home of the colonial period. More broadly, the site is used to discuss Central Louisianan history between 1795 and 1855. The site includes the main residence, milk house, open hearth kitchen, slave cabin, carriage house, barn, blacksmith shop, gardens, and a sugar mill.
The house offers period rooms, exhibits, guided tours, group tours, customizable student tours, demonstrations, summer camps, and a traveling trunk. Reservations are required for group tours and open hearth cooking. The website offers an educational packet on the Yellow Fever.
