Event details

On Bayou Teche, French isn’t just a classroom subject, it’s part of the landscape. International Francophonie Day at Longfellow‑Evangeline State Historic Site connects families to Creole and Acadian roots through hourly guided tours of the Olivier plantation house and the Acadian cabin.

Build your visit around the tours, then linger outside under live oaks, watching bayou traffic drift past. It’s a gentle, culture-forward spring outing that still feels outdoorsy, especially if you pair it with a picnic on the grounds.
