The quintessential image of the antebellum plantation home, Oak Alley, some nine miles upriver from Laura on the west bank, dates from 1839, when, as the tourist brochure puts it, "Southern aristocracy ruled the land". The 28 monumental Live Oaks that form a magnificent canopy over the drive-way from the front door to the river are 150 years older and are expected to live another three hundred years.

Oak Alley was one of the locations used in the
filming of Interview with the Vampire.
