Witness history and culture reflected in architectural styles including Greek Revival, Italianate, Second Empire, Gothic, Georgian, Swiss Chalet, Queen Anne, and more. Highlights include the former or current homes of Archie, Peyton, & Eli Manning: Anne Rice, Nicolas Cage, Sandra Bullock, Trent Reznor, and John Goodman; the cornstalk fence, the death site of Jefferson Davis, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button film site, “Miss Robichaux’s Academy for Exceptional Young Ladies” from AMERICAN HORROR STORY, and more!
