Cathedral of St John the Evangelist

This quasi-Romanesque brick cathedral in Lafayette is worth a look.

We were led to grounds of St John’s Cathedral in our downtown Lafayette scavenger hunt. We happened to see the cathedral the day before Easter. Unbelievably beautiful!

Vermilionville

Get a taste of life for the 18th-century Acadian settlers in this 23-acre village with meticulously recreated period homes, costumed staff demonstrating arts and crafts and a restaurant serving Cajun and Creole food.

Reviewed By virginias729

One of the earliest settlements along the banks of the Bayou Vermilion. Two hundred years ago! Very historic and the interpreters are wonderful. They are in the time period wardrobe and give detailed history of life and crafts of the time period 1765 to 1890. We were totally impressed with this historic village! Spend as much time as you have in this place.

Acadian Village

Step back in time to a small 19th-century Cajun bayou community, which includes genuine Cajun homes relocated and combined with recreated period buildings and a Native American museum.

Reviewed By sodabear2003 - DeRidder, United States

This is a very pretty place to visit, it is a step back in time. when we visited they had a wedding taking place, but you could still visit all the buildings except 2 where the wedding party was. charming, ducks, turtles, and fish are in the ponds and they have little food machine where you can feed all the animals. The store has all kinds of stuff you can buy and the staff is very helpful.

Lafayette Science Museum

The cultural heritage of Southwestern Louisiana is preserved at this combination museum and planetarium, which houses over 1,000 paintings, prints and sculpture of Louisiana artists and regularly changing exhibits and planetarium programs.

Reviewed By kellymB5695PA - Opp, United States

Downtown Lafayette so it's within walking distance of parking and other places to visit. Admission prices are reasonable, staff is very friendly and helpful. Lot's of hands on activities and interesting exhibits. Loved the Acadiana 360 virtual reality experience and the big screen that put you in the picture (forgot what the exhibit was called). A must do when in downtown Lafayette.

Acadian Cultural Center

Reviewed By ebu63

Everyone who lives or is a visitor to Acadiana, must come and see the history of the Cajuns; Over 200 years masterfully set at this museum, along with a short film to highlight their journey! The staff is not only friendly but extremely knowledgeable about the history! And it is FREE! Best I have experienced in all my travels! A must on your agenda of things to do!!
