Maison de Reprise, remains of the retirement home built 500 feet away from the "big house." It was built for the first female president of the Duparc Plantation, Nannette Prud'homme Duparc.
Laura Plantation is a restored historic Louisiana Creole plantation on the west bank of the Mississippi River in Vacherie, Louisiana.[2] Formerly known as Duparc Plantation, it is significant for its early 19th-century Créole-style raised big house and several surviving outbuildings, including two slave cabins. It is one of only 15 plantation complexes in Louisiana with this many complete structures.[2] Due to its historical importance, the plantation is on the National Register of Historic Places. The site, in St. James Parish, Louisiana, is also included on the Louisiana African American Heritage Trail.
Alcée Fortier, who later became Professor of Romance Languages and folklore at Tulane University, was said to have collected Louisiana Creole versions of the West African Br'er Rabbit stories here in the 1870s.
The parents and family of U.S. singer-songwriter Fats Domino ("Blueberry Hill") had lived on the plantation.[3]
