St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 is the oldest and most famous attractions in New Orleans. It was opened in 1789, as the main burial ground when the city was redesigned after a fire in 1788.
Saint Louis Cemetery was name of three Roman Catholic cemeteries in New Orleans, Louisiana in the 18th century and 19th century. Most of the graves are above-ground vaults.
