Eunice Museum, Museum in a restored train depot in Eunice, Louisiana
The museum is housed in an old train station that has been carefully restored, and when you step inside, you feel as though you are traveling back in time to a quieter era.
Built in the late 1800s, this depot once served as a busy hub for travelers and trade, connecting the small town of Eunice to distant places through the rhythm of arriving and departing trains.
The museum celebrates Cajun Mardi Gras traditions with colorful costumes and lively displays, and it also honors early Cajun life through exhibits on pioneer farming, traditional crafts, and local music that shaped the region.
Open from Wednesday to Saturday during morning and early afternoon hours, the museum is easy to find on South C C Duson Street, and admission is free, making it an accessible stop for visitors.
Inside, you can step into an old caboose where railroad workers once rode, giving you a real sense of what life was like on the rails during the golden days of train travel.

Next to the bayous and New Orleans, the state hides cemeteries where voodoo priestesses rest, chapels filled with ex-votos, plantations known for their ghosts, and even an abandoned amusement park from Hurricane Katrina.
