Lonely Planet review

This tidy looking cemetery was established in 1854 at the site of the old Bayou Cemetery and is worth strolling through for at least a few minutes. Of particular note here is the striking monument James Gallier Jr designed for his mother and father, who were lost at sea. James Gallier Sr, of course, was also a well established architect who preceded his son in designing many of the city's landmark buildings. The cemetery's wrought-iron entrance gate is a beauty.
