Itinerary
Masonic Cemetery
Founded in 1865 by the Grand Lodge of the State of Louisiana Free and Accepted Masons, this cemetery is distinct from the city’s Catholic cemeteries. It occupies two triangular city blocks bisected by Conti Street, with a layout that resembles the Masonic square and compass symbol. The cemetery features many unusual and elaborate tombs, which were financed communally by lodge members who purchased large group tombs. Oak-lined edges and cast-iron fences separate its two sections, with tombs arranged in rows parallel to Bienville Street and a wide promenade providing access to smaller walkways.
