Vermilionville authentically portrays a way of life preserved with a distinctly French accent. Situated on the banks of the Bayou Vermilion, this Cajun/Creole heritage and folklife park recreates life in the Acadiana area between 1765 and 1890.
The beautiful grounds, which are laid out as an historic village, contain eighteen structures, including six restored original homes. In most of the structures, costumed interpreters demonstrate traditional crafts or musical styles.
A full-service restaurant and gift shop enhance time spent at Vermilionville. The gift shop is filled with Cajun and Creole items (many of which are made by our craftspeople) that you are sure to bring home and treasure.
We invite you to learn more about historic Vermilionville by browsing our website. We hope that you will enjoy your virtual visit and begin to make plans to visit us on location in the not too distant future.
The French translation on this web site was made possible by a grant from the French government, administered by the Média-Louisiane committee and the Council for the Development of French in Louisiana (CODOFIL). |
