Rosedown

Rosedown is something of a crown jewel in the string of antebellum dwellings in Louisiana and the Felician Parishes. Though known primarily for its expansive gardens and grounds, the interior of Rosedown is stunning in its own right.
I considered the gardens and foyer of Rosedown worthy of their own blog posts.
An remarkable amount of its original furniture has remained at Rosedown, this largely because descendants of Daniel and Martha Turnbull, who built the house in 1834-35, resided there for several generations.

The house and gardens are now the property of the State of Louisiana and are preserved as a state historical site by the Office of State Parks.
