Natchitoches and the Cane River
Natchitoches is the oldest permanent settlement in the Louisiana Purchase territory, established as a French outpost in 1714. The city is the seat of Natchitoches Parish and has a population near 18,400. The historic district along the Cane River runs through the center of town and is lined with French Creole architecture, iron balconies, and brick storefronts.
Northwestern State University, founded in 1884, enrolls roughly 11,000 students and is the city's largest employer. The annual Natchitoches Christmas Festival, running from late November through early January, features over 300,000 lights along the riverbank and a fireworks display each Saturday. The festival is one of the oldest holiday light displays in the country.
The Cane River National Heritage Area encompasses several plantation sites, including Oakland Plantation and Magnolia Plantation, both administered by the National Park Service. The movie Steel Magnolias (1989) was filmed in Natchitoches, and locations from the film remain recognizable around town.
