• Gallier House - Step back in time at the Gallier Historic House to witness the grandeur of Victorian design and furnishings. This architectural masterpiece was completed in 1860 and is the brainchild of renowned New Orleans architect, James Gallier, Jr. Originally a family residence, the Gallier House is notable for its advanced engineering features, including indoor plumbing with both hot and cold water, as well as a unique double skylight. The home’s original inventory serves as a blueprint for the display of period decorative arts, which exemplify the sophisticated tastes of the Gallier family. The comfortable existence enjoyed by the Galliers was made possible by the labor of enslaved individuals and, subsequently, household staff, whose stories are also shared during guided tours.
