Great book store in the back. Beautiful home turned into a library. The moldings and paintings are beautiful.
MoreIn the St.Charles Team route and it sits to the left hand side of the street coming out from New Orleans. Fantastic library .
MoreThis library is in an historic building that provides a warm comfortable atmosphere for community meetings and the regular services of a public library. There is a book sale on Wednesdays and Saturdays in the carriage house behind the main building.
MoreWhat a great building to have such a wonderful library located. The librarians are extremely helpful and the book selection although small has a lot of the recent greats. The historical building is beautiful and has a lot of history. We love it.
MoreI am a book lover and frequent the library at home. While riding the streetcar I saw this museum and knew we had to go in! A beautiful historic mansion that has been converted to a library. Gorgeous sitting rooms and grounds. The neighbors are so lucky to have this as their local library.
