Hermione, Greek Revival building in Louisiana, United States.

Hermione is a Greek Revival building in Louisiana featuring symmetrical facades and substantial columns that define its appearance. The structure displays the balanced proportions and classical elements typical of this 19th century architectural approach.

Hermione was built in 1853 or 1855 on Kell Plantation in Madison Parish. In 1862 Union troops seized it as a federal hospital during the Vicksburg Campaign, which spared it from destruction. It was listed on the National Register in 1988, moved to Tallulah, and relisted in 1998.

The house is a site on the Louisiana African American Heritage Trail, and its exhibits include one devoted to Madam C. J. Walker, born Sarah Breedlove near Delta, Louisiana, soon after the Civil War. She became the first African-American woman to be a self-made millionaire. The building now also houses the offices of the Madison Historical Society.

The museum occupies a one-story house at 305 N. Mulberry Street, a stretch that also carries US 80 through Tallulah. It is run with the offices of the Madison Historical Society, so visiting is arranged through the society rather than a separate ticket office. The building was moved to this lot in 1997, so its present setting is not its original plantation site.

The house was listed on the National Register in 1988 at its Kell Plantation site, then relisted on November 23, 1998, after being moved to Tallulah. It is one of only four antebellum structures still standing in Madison Parish.
