St. Bernard Parish, Administrative division in southeastern Louisiana, United States.
St. Bernard Parish extends across 2,158 square miles, incorporating both mainland territories and water areas including the Chandeleur Islands and Sound.
The Battle of New Orleans in 1815 occurred at Chalmette Battlefield, now part of the Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve.
The parish maintains strong connections to Spanish heritage through its Isleños community, descendants of settlers from the Canary Islands.
The parish government offers multiple services through specialized departments, including coastal management, emergency preparedness, and public transportation systems.
Hurricane Katrina in 2005 affected every structure in the parish, leading to a population decrease from 67,000 to 35,897 residents in 2010.
