- Day 1- March 18, 2027- Depart Baton Rouge in the morning, routing through Zachary for a pick-up. We start our day in Natchez with a tour of the city. Originally founded as Fort Rosalie in 1716 by the French, Natchez is the oldest continuous settlement on the Mississippi river. Today, Natchez is known for its beautiful antebellum homes and historic sites- in fact, Natchez boasts over 1,000 buildings on the National Register of Historic Places!
After our tour, we tour Rosalie house, a historic home that dates back to 1823. Located on the Mississippi River bluff, it played a vital role in the Civil War in Mississippi. You’ll love its beautiful gardens and original furnishings.
Then, we tour Stanton Hall, built in 1857 by wealthy Irish immigrant and cotton planter, Frederick Stanton. This notable historic home was also briefly home to a girl’s school. Today, the home is managed by the Natchez Pilgrimage Garden Club. We have an included lunch here.
We end our tour of Natchez highlights at Longwood, an octagonal mansion built in 1861. When the Civil War broke out, construction was halted, leaving only nine of the thirty-two planned rooms completed.
