About Louisiana Political Museum and Hall of Fame

Housed in a historic railroad depot built around 1905, this museum holds thousands of items tracing Louisiana politics from early state leaders to current elected officials. Its exhibits also cover people who worked in less visible roles but still shaped state politics. Visitors can see a 1951 Chevrolet sedan once used as Gov. Earl K. Long's campaign car, and the museum has inducted over 170 people into its hall of fame since opening.
