Overview

In a city known for its rich culture and layered history, the BK House stands out as one of the French Quarter’s oldest—and most storied—residents. Built in 1826 and located on a quiet residential block, this house has lived through nearly 200 years of change, from antebellum opulence to wartime struggles, from immigrant resilience to modern preservation.

Join us for a guided tour through elegant rooms, hidden corners, and a lush courtyard, and hear the real stories of the people who lived and labored here—enslaved people, free people of color, Sicilian immigrants, and others who helped shape the house and the city around it.
