1963 Map of White Castle

About this map

The Mississippi River meanders through this portion of Iberville, Ascension, and Assumption Parishes, defining a landscape shaped by sugar production and river commerce. Industrial and social history converge at the National Leprosarium near Point Clair, while the town of White Castle serves as a central hub for the surrounding plantation economy. Numerous landings such as Lorrett Ldg, Hard Times Ldg, and Woodstock Ldg line the river banks, marking the historical points of departure for local goods before the dominance of the Texas and Pacific railroad.
