  The tour leader was excellent and had🔕 so much good information to convey. Just for the history of African-Americans in New Orleans, I believe this is a really vital place to visit and learn.

  This was exactly the kind of place I hoped to see during my trip to New Orleans. I love history and it's the stories of the people of cities that interest me the most. Our tour guide was SO knowledgeable and the artifacts and exhibits in the space are priceless. Thank you for offering this space, this is a MUST SEE for all visitors to this great city.

  My husband and I were visiting NOLA for the first time to celebrate his birthday. Prior to visiting, I researched all the “things you must do in New Orleans,” and it is unfortunate that Le Musée de FPC was not on any of those lists!!! Thankfully, I stumbled across this museum by chance and submitted an online request for a tour. Someone called us back within an hour and we booked a tour for the same day (Note: You have to make an appointment for a tour). The cost is $15 per person and you can pay by cash or credit card (I believe there’s a fee if you pay with a credit card). What a hidden gem!!! Our tour guide, Kim, was so knowledgeable. We were able to walk about the museum, ask questions, hear about the history of the house and New Orleans, with a focus on the Free People of Color who made New Orleans and this nation what it is today! After the tour, we had the opportunity to speak with another lovely lady (I hate that I don’t remember her name) who allowed us to view additional pieces of Art on the top floor of the building. Le Musée puts me in the mindset of the Schomburg Center in Harlem. It’s a much smaller venue, but a must see for anyone interested in the African Diaspora. As the African Proverb goes “Until the Story of the hunt is told by the Lion, the tale of the hunt will always glorify the hunter!” Someone please add this place to a “Top things to do in NOLA” list!!!!

  So grateful for one of the few places dedicated to preserving and sharing the history and culture of free people of color. I learned soooo much, and the staff working there were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about the important will being done there. A MUST for residents and tourists alike.
