St Louis No 1 Cemetery & History Tour


During this tour, you will make your way through the historic French Quarter to St. Louis Cemetery No. 1, the final resting place of history’s most revered Voodoo Queen, Marie Laveau. Guests will have the added bonus of visiting a Voodoo museum and will have the opportunity to purchase Voodoo magic potions at Marie Laveau’s Voodoo Shop before heading into the cemetery.There are three St. Louis Cemeteries in New Orleans, but the oldest extant cemetery in the city is St. Louis Cemetery Number 1. It is still the site of several burials a year. Here you will notice that the cemeterys graves are above ground tombs, referred to as Cities of the Dead because they resembled small houses and make the cemetery look like a city in itself.To ensure the historic preservation of this local landmark, recent rules set by the Catholic Archdioesces of New Orleans require all visitors to this cemetery to be accompanied by a licensed tour guide.Additional InformationConfirmation will be received at time of bookingChildren must be accompanied by an adultInclusionsProfessional guideWalking tourExclusionsGratuities (recommended)Departure PointOutside Landrys Seafood620 Decatur St. #600New Orleans, LA 70130Departure TimeMonday-Sunday 11am 2pmDuration2 hoursVoucher InfoYou can present either a paper or an electronic voucher for this activity.The tour identified in this promotion is made available through Viator.
