The Kent Plantation House was built in 1796, not that long before Louisiana became a territory of the United States. It was a time of great transition for Louisiana and that change is reflected in the house. You can tour the house and see the furnishings of a prosperous family of that time. You can tour the grounds and see how the servants lived and worked. You can see the Milk House, Open Hearth Kitchen where that are cooking demonstrations, authentic Slave Cabins, the Eden Building, the home of one of the more important slaves, Carriage House, Barn, Blacksmith Shop and Sugar Mill. One thing you will come away with is the realization that a plantation like this was really a small town, mostly self sufficient. They have special exhibits that change each month and special events going on all year long.
