“See how American Indians; colonists from France, Spain, and Britain; enslaved Africans and Acadians from Nova Scotia—eventually known as Cajuns—populated and cultivated Louisiana, shaping it into one of the most culturally rich regions in the world. With thematic exhibits on diverse aspects of Louisiana history, industry, and culture, the museum includes two permanent exhibits: Grounds for Greatness: Louisiana and the Nation and The Louisiana Experience: Discovering the Soul of America.”
Capitol Park Museum includes a giant, illuminated map of the Louisiana Territory and is considered one of the best destinations to learn about the Louisiana Purchase.
