Architectural Treasures
Uncover the architectural legacy of New Orleans in this lively walking tour through the French Quarter. Starting at HNOC’s historic Seignouret-Brulatour Building, guests will learn about the French, Spanish, and American influences that shaped New Orleans architecture, from Creole cottages to cast-iron balconies. The tour will start in the galleries and then go beyond our walls for a short walking tour exploring the architecture of the French Quarter.
Behind the Scenes -- Treasures from the Vault
Our most popular experience, this is a high-impact, exclusive encounter where we pull rare primary sources—historic artifacts, documents, and artwork—directly from our vaults.
