One of the six separate parts of the Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve, Chalmette National Historical Park is located six miles southeast of the City of New Orleans. Chalmette National Historical Park was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974, and overlooks the Mississippi River.

Perhaps most significantly, Chalmette National Historical Park was the location of the Battle of New Orleans during the War of 1812 between American and British forces. Today it serves as a National Cemetery as well a park, and is the resting place for soldiers of the War of 1812, American Civil War, Spanish-American War, World Wars I and II, and the Vietnam War. The Park sustained major damage during Hurricane Katrina in 2005, which left the visitor’s center completely destroyed.

Located at 8606 West St. Bernard Highway in Chalmette, Louisiana, Chalmette National Historical Park is a short drive from tourist centers like the French Quarter. Park hours are 9 A.M. until 5 P.M. daily, and admission is free of charge.
