St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 is a historic cemetery located in the heart of New Orleans, Louisiana. Established in 1789, it is one of the oldest and most famous cemeteries in the city, and is known for its unique above-ground tombs and mausoleums. The cemetery covers approximately one square block and is surrounded by a high brick wall.
As visitors enter the cemetery, they are immediately struck by the eerie and haunting atmosphere. The tombs and mausoleums are arranged in a grid-like pattern, with narrow walkways winding between them. Many of the tombs are adorned with intricate carvings and sculptures, and some are even painted in bright colors.
One of the most famous tombs in St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 is the tomb of Marie Laveau, the legendary Voodoo Queen of New Orleans. Her tomb is marked with X's, which visitors have left as offerings in hopes of receiving her blessings. Other notable tombs include those of the French architect and engineer Benjamin Latrobe, and the Spanish-American War hero General P.G.T. Beauregard.
Visitors to St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 should be prepared for a unique and somewhat eerie experience. The cemetery is a popular destination for tourists, but it is also a place of reverence and respect for the families of those buried there. Visitors are asked to be mindful of their surroundings and to refrain from touching or defacing the tombs.
