Cane River Creole National Historical Park, in response to the stay at home directive issued by the Governor of the State of Louisiana, is announcing additional modifications to operations to support federal, state, and local efforts to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19).

As of March 23, 2020, Cane River Creole National Historical Park will be closed in order to comply with the state order. This includes all parking lots, buildings, facilities and trails.

The health and safety of our visitors, employees, volunteers, and partners at Cane River Creole National Historical Park is our number one priority. The National Park Service (NPS) is working with federal, state, and local authorities to closely monitor COVID-19. We will notify the public when we resume full operations and provide updates on our website http://www.nps.gov/cari and social media channels.

The NPS encourages people to take advantage of the many digital tools already available to explore Cane River Creole National Historical Park, including:
