Property Description
Tour Madame John's Legacy and step back in time to Creole New Orleans in the late 18th Century. Built in 1788, Madame John's is a showcase of "green design" in a subtropical climate featuring broad shaded galleries, well-ventilated rooms, and a cooling cellar. Tours are self-guided, and free. But be sure to ask your Louisiana State Museum host how Madame John's got its name and other local legends surounding this historic home.
