Original caption
My family’s Creole, River Road all the way back, so New Orleans has always been part of me. Here are my suggestions for the parts of the city that do something visceral to me as a Southern gothic historian. Convents behind iron gates and cemeteries older than the country. This city holds onto everything, the beautiful and the strange. 📍 Old Ursuline Convent, Lafayette Cemetery no 2, New Orleans Pharmacy Museum, 1850 House Museum, Arnaud’s, St. Louis Cathedral, Hotel Monteleone, BK House and Gardens, Free People of Color Museum #neworleans #southerngothic #creole #liminalspaces #creepy
