The World War Two Museum across the street that looked interesting, but maybe next time?
The center building is the Confederate Memorial Hall Museum. Our son Tom had reccomended it, for us to tour. It had many pictures and gifts from Family members of Louisiana, that had fought in the Civil war!!
Husband Ron and friend Tony Pittari who was our volunteer guide for the day!! Bust of Jefferson Davis.
A Memorial display at the end of the Hall. The museum ws built in 1891.
From the back of the building looking toward the entry, a beautiful picture of the architecture!!
Looking at the decorations of various flags and pictures on the side of the Hall from the Civil War.There were many pistols and other guns etc. to appreciate!!
One of the unique building's in downtown New Orleans, where we were!!
St. Patrick’s Church, was close by so we stopped in to take a look. Very beutiful!!
Looking at the Alter in the front of the Church, very pretty. It just happened to be noon so we were off to lunch in the French Quarter!!
