The Felix Vallé House was built in 1818 as an American Federal-style residence and mercantile. Jean Baptiste Vallé purchased the property in 1824 and his son, Felix, occupied the residence with his wife, son, and enslaved laborers. Restored and furnished to reflect the 1830s, the home today interprets the American influence on the French community following the Louisiana Purchase. Take a tour of the interior of the home with the Felix Vallé State Historic Site.
