Iberville Parish

This parish is home to the majestic Nottoway Plantation,the largest remaining plantation home in the south. Travel Louisiana’s Great River Road tothe quaint Madonna Chapel, which according to folklore is the world’s smallest church.  In addition, Iberville takes center stage as the Atchafalaya Basin capitalizes on its designation as a National Heritage Area, one of only forty congressionally recognized regions in the country.  Picturesque sites such as historic churches, homes and scenic byways are abundant throughout this region and are perhaps most notable in North Iberville. Take the ferry across the Mississippi River to East Iberville’sHansen’s Disease Museum, an isolated corner of the parish that once served as a contained community for leprosy patients until the late 1980’s.  An architectural and engineering phenomenon, the Plaquemine Lock State Historic Site was designed by the same engineer who constructed the Panama Canal and allows visitors to learn more about the commerce of waterways in an earlier time. At the heart of Louisiana’s Plantation Country and the soul of the Atchafalaya Basin,Iberville Parish is a wealth of discovery.
