lsu rural life museum印象

this is an outstanding example of rural LA life in the past. the only problem was that they were renovating (never mentioned that when they asked for admission price) and several exhibits were missing, moved, stuff was jumbled together, etc. and one contract worker was blaring his "music" quite loudly (he only smiled when I reminded him this was a museum...dope)the building outside were very interesting...old slave quarters, corn cribs, blacksmith shop, school, etc., etc.also, there is a botanical planting area and also test gardens planted by LSU profs.very easy access from highway and in the city limits. definitely worth a visit! happy trails.

LSU Rural Life Museum is more than what you think a museum would be. It's a complete outdoor village that's been transported to their location. One of the best events is their Rural Life Christmas (that's held Dec 7, 2014 @ 12:30 to 6pm. There are musical groups, demonstrations, open hearth cooking, storytellers & costumed re-enactors. My grandchildren (ages 3-10) love going there and they get in free with Adult Adm of $9.

This isn't Disney's Song of the South. These are real, preserved antebellum buildings including slave quarters, a small church and an overseer's house.

The LSU Rural Life museum is well worth a visit, one of my favorite museums in Louisiana! They have authentic slave quaters brought from other plantations around the south, as well as overseers cottages. They house an enormous collection of Old South antiques (carriages, documents, weapons etc.) If you want to know what life was like in the old south it is a fascinating museum, even better than some of the plantations in the area in terms of what you can actually see and walk through. Then, after you take the tour you can walk around the magnificant grounds of the Burden plantation! This is a great attraction for kids as well as adults.

have a nice museum, recently completely renovated. It was a needed renovation.If a visitor, great for learning about Louisiana rural life in the 1800's (or so). If local and never been, worth a visit.Course the annual Zapps beer fest is a treat and a fun event.

We found the exhibits profoundly interesting, particularly the many relocated and restored buildings. We had lots of questions that a guided tour would have likely addressed but if they normally provide guided tours one was not being offered on the first Saturday of the new year when we visited. For the photo enthusiast there are hundreds of interesting images awaiting capture.

We arrived late in the afternoon, and didn't have as long as one would like. Nevertheless, this was an exceptional stop. Adults and teenager all loved it.

Hard to believe this is in the city. Easy to get around. Will be very pretty in the spring. Met one of the master gardeners and he was very helpful and you could tell he enjoyed working there.

I like the set up of this museum. Many artifacts we got to see as well as the overseers house, slave quarters, the sick area and where they made their sugar. We also got to walk through a small garden. Fine visit. Shouldn't be missed if you are in the area.

This could be a nice museum. There was a lot to look at. Unfortunately there was very little signage to describe what exactly I was looking at. It looked like they were in the process of remodeling and a lot of the items were stacked off to the side. You could still look at them, but they weren't displayed very well. None of this was explained when I shelled out the full $9.00 admission fee which was quite steep for what looked to be a half finished project.
