~6 miles from Marrero.

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.

A never-completed minor tourist attraction for the 1984 New Orleans World's Fair. It looks like a small-scale medieval castle.
