Do not miss this museum! But make sure you give yourself 5+ hours or better yet multiple days. This museum is huge and jam packed with information, very easy to get overwhelmed. This being a newer built museum it was very high tech and they put out all the stops to impress!

We took a tour through Cajun Encounters. The grounds are beautiful. The tour of the big house was very quick and surface level. Would appreciate going into more detail about the owners throughout the years, felt very “conveyor belt” like, trying to get people in and out as fast as possible. Gift shop and restaurant were nice. Would have appreciated more staff around to ask questions/go into more detail of the property.

Very nicely done smaller museum. We would love if they had more in the gift shop but understand this is a smaller operation. That being said the exhibits were informative and well thought out. Would recommend to all of those looking to enrich their understanding of Jewish life in the south.
