During the Civil War, Confederate troops burned the bridge to keep Union troops from crossing. New Orleans finally built a steel bridge, but it only lasted 50 years before collapsing. Luckily, they reconstructed it in the mid-20th century. This bridge is a symbol of the city&#8217;s history, but if you want to know more, you can check out the website below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The city has a long history of history, dating back to the 17th century.

The Cajun Christmas Parade takes place the day after Thanksgiving and features traditional cajun fare. The city also offers some fun events for families and for the whole family. The city has a wide variety of activities for families to enjoy. There is a parade, music, and a thriving downtown scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The town&#8217;s many bodies of water make for a beautiful setting.
