A very quaint old fashioned country store and museum full of interesting antiques and artifacts…read more Lots of history here. The storekeeper is a retired history professor and is very knowledgeable about local history. I purchased his memoirs and had some very candid conversation with him in regards to the plantation and slave quarters surrounding this delightful old store. I purchased some unique locally made souveniors.

I came in a Saturday when I happened to be in the area. Inside of the store is interesting. They…read moreseemed to be having some sort of meeting. I was greeted, asked to sign the guest registry and told they accept donations and told to walk around. They are cash only, which I was reminded of several times while here. I was also informed many times (I stopped counting at 5) that they were having a meeting, but I should sign the guest registry, make a donation and walk around and just pretend they weren't there. It was funny the first few times. After I stopped counting, I shoved $1 in the donation bin and left. Super cute place. Signs all over that it is a museum, don't touch, and items had price tags. Not all items had price tags. There was just so much going on here, item wise and people wise. I walked around some outside and it was all very lovely.

A visit to Morgan City will provide you with an unforgettable experience, entrenched in the oil and…read moreseafood industries it easy to see the impact these industries have had on the people that live and work here. Located just off the banks of the Atchafalaya River this a place where man has learned to co-exist with Mother Nature the city is about seven below sea level in many areas and flooding has been a part of living next to such a mighty river that is a strategic part of a major flood control network. The four flood-walls in the Morgan City area were constructed of steel sheet pilings driven to an average depth of -70 feet.  The above ground portions were capped with concrete.  Gates in the flood-walls will normally remain open to accommodate vehicular and pedestrian traffic, but will be closed when floods threaten the area. There aren't many places you can travel in and around the city where these giant walls aren't visible which shows the extent of the flooding risk. But don't let your focus on the flood wall sway you from enjoying everything Morgan City has to offer the culture and food is in abundance around every corner and down every street, one thing to note is how many of the neighborhoods are named and dated on signs as you transition throughout the city which shows how this city was developed, this is still a small town with a population of just over 12,000 residents and is filled with architecture that rivals many cities so doing a driving tour will reveal some surprises that you won't want to miss...

The petting zoo nearby is cute and very reasonably priced. There is an amazing visitors center that is full of information on things to do in the area and a history of the wildlife, environment and people who have lived here for longer than the colonizers. I recommend anyone looking for things to do in the area as a spot to stop in and look at. There are several great restaurants in the area.
