Quirky Tourist Attractions in or near Louisiana

While in Louisiana, you might enjoy a visit to:

St. Rose, Louisiana: Grave of Hitler's Horse, Zachary Taylor's Bathtub

Visitors to the La Branche plantation will find several unexpected sights, such as the largest pecan tree in Louisiana, the grave of Hitler's horse Nordlicht, and the bathtub of President Zachary Taylor.
~42 miles from Gonzales.

New Orleans, Louisiana: Voodoo Merman

Has exotic displays of voodoo as practiced in Haiti and Africa, along with brightly painted devil statues -- and a diminutive half-monkey half-fish "Fiji Mermaid" or merman (we had a hard time telling).
~54 miles from Gonzales.

New Orleans, Louisiana: Insectarium: Largest Bug Museum in U.S.

Has an oversized "den" where you are shrunk to the size of a bug and are threatened by a bird and a trapdoor spider, and an "immersion theater" where things pop out at you and mist sprays in your face.
~54 miles from Gonzales.

New Orleans, Louisiana: National World War II Museum

Formerly the National D-Day Museum. From one day to nearly 2,000 days -- quite a mission expansion. New Orleans was the manufacturing center for D-Day landing craft by shipbuilder Andrew Higgins.
~54 miles from Gonzales.
