Gallery houses a collection of historic photographs (circa 1850-1951), printed from original negatives of famous photographers such as J.M. White, Henry d. Gurney and Henry C. Norman.
The gallery boasts so many photos of old-time Natchez. One of the photos that made me sad was of the Aldrich family on the porch of their lovely home, and then the information that the home had been torn down to make room for apartments. All of the photos are extensively documented, and the information is even listed at Top, Middle, and Bottom so that the viewer doesn't have to wonder which description matches which photo. I was particularly intrigued by the portrait photos and the images of the ladies' clothing. Even if you are not a museum buff, this photo gallery is worth a look.

Didn’t see these incredible photos coming when we stopped to view the church interior! Amazing b&w photos of early Natchez. From portraits of citizens to local architecture, street scenes to river scapes, floods to river cruises, everything’s documented. If you’re a fan of period photography, don’t miss this free exhibit!

Enjoy sipping complimentary wine while relaxing to music of the Masters, played on a 1903 Steinway grand piano in the Stone House Music Room. Hear this private classical piano performance by a graduate of two prominent American conservatories, along with complimentary wine, followed by a tour of the unique Stone House. Composers generally featured include Beethoven, Chopin, Gottschalk and Debussy among others. Usual rate is $20 per person. Reservations are necessary.
Joe is an outstanding piano player. As part of staying at the Stone House Musical B&B, he gives a Private Concert. His musical talent is amazing. I am not talking Chop Sticks on the Piano. He plays musical scores from Great Composers whom I cannot pronounce, much less spell their name. Do yourself a favor and book with Stone House Musical B&B. You will not be sorry ....

Recognized as an architectural masterpiece among Catholic churches in the south, it is the spiritual home of a vibrant St. Mary Catholic community today. The construction of this place of worship was begun in 1842 as the Cathedral of the newly established Diocese of Natchez. The St. Mary congregation takes pride in the basilica's colorful and prayerful setting, and welcomes visitors from near and distant places. The city of Natchez, on the Mississippi River and the birthplace of Mississippi, is a tourist destination because of its historic ante-bellum homes. St. Mary Basilica, also ante-bellum, is the city's central landmark.
On a recent trip with our 11 year old grandson, we stopped in and where so amazed at the beauty of this old church. The grounds are beautiful also. Pictures do not do it justice.

Natchez is a nice small town. Very quite. A buddy and I were riding our bikes on the Natchez Trace Parkway, and stayed one night at Choctaw Hall. It was a great place to stay! The best thing about our stay was the tour of the mansion by David Garner. He knew the history, was very interesting to listen to, and very funny. It was a great stay and I highly recommend for anyone. I plan to stay again someday.

My wife and I went to Regina’s kitchen actually to take a biscuit making course it was great we enjoyed it very much Regina was very hospitable and friendly we’ve eaten at the Kings Tavern which is also operated by Regina but if you want a great meal for two or three or a group I would go back to Regina’s kitchen during wine night and really it’s a very enjoyable place and when I looked on TripAdvisor I noticed it was rated as 15 and I’ll tell you we’ve gone to a lot of places in Natchez to eat and I would not rate it number 15, Regina’s kitchen is up there 1 to 3 along with the tavern great place, well worth the price an the atmosphere is super. This is definitely a go to Spot every time were in Natchez.
