You shouldn't miss this! Walking and gazing at the amazing photos gives you a feeling that you're in the middle of it all! The continuous rooms of photos could keep me there for hours. It really adds a personal touch to the history of Natchez. I would suggest you allow plenty of time on your itenerary for this visit to thoroughly enjoy it.

This exhibit rivals any in a fine museum. We were lucky to have a very knowlegable volunteer staffing the church and photograph display that gave us a delightful tour of the church and a lot of background on the photographs. Captions with the photographs provide great background if you are not so lucky. You must see these photographs if you are in town, they complement the home tours greatly.

Great place to spend some time hearing the history of the Presbyterian Church. This building is very interesting and has pews with doors. Upstairs is the photo gallery showing hundreds of photos of life in Natchez from about 1865 to 1903. Really gave you a good idea of how people dressed and lived. No charge but a donation box was near the exit if you would like to leave a donation to support the gallery.

If you're visiting Natchez, you'll undoubtedly be visiting several of the magnificent mansions around town. But what you miss as you tour these houses is any real sense of those who lived there, their children and servants, what they did, what the rest of Natchez looked like, etc. etc. Do yourself a favor and visit the Stratton Gallery and peruse the hundreds of excellent photographs that help complete a full 'picture' of Natchez. Anyone with a good imagination will find dozens of images that will have you speculating on the 'backstory' to the photo. Delightful sums it up for me.

This houses a collection of photographs that depict life in Natchez among ordinary citizens and town notables alike. No other visual interpretation available anywhere depicts the Mississippi River Steamboat Era in such detail, with such precise images and detailed supporting text. Just walking through the collection, absorbing the images one after another after another will leave visitors with a distinct feeling that they really do know these folks, and can hear the whistles from the boats echoing along the bluffs. Donations are accepted.

We had a wonderful visit here! The docent who showed us around was very informative and friendly! The picture museum was extraordinary! A must see!

500 fascinating photos dating back to the 1850s, ranging from formal portraits to riverboats to scenes of daily life. All races, all walks of life. Don't miss it.

This collection is astounding. The "guide" at the front door said that pictures were all developed from glass negatives that had been sitting on a Natchez patio in cardboard boxes. I can't imagine the patience and time it must have taken to hand develop each one but they shed light on the past in a way no film or book could do. As an added bonus, a man played the enormous pipe organ almost the entire time we toured the gallery. What a treat!

This attraction is free and is one of the best collections of old photographs of Natchez. You will not be disappointed.
