Any walk around town should include a tour of Shadows on the Teche , a grand, Greek-revival plantation house set on the banks of the bayou. The home stayed in the Weeks family from construction in 1831 until it was willed to the National Society for Historic Preservation in 1958. More than 17,000 papers describing the most minute details of the house’s history were left in the attic, making this one of the most well-documented historic plantations in Louisiana.
