Natchitoches (pronounced NAK-uh-tish), the oldest permanent settlement in modern-day Louisiana, was founded in 1714 by a French-Canadian Louis Antoine Juchereau de St. Denis while he was on a trade mission from Mobile, Alabama, to Mexico. When he reached the Natchitoches Indian village, he built two huts on the Cane River, left a small detachment to trade with the native people, and thereby established the first permanent Louisiana settlement.
Natchitoches is a one-of-a-kind community brimming with history, culture, shopping, recreation, and unique creole and cajun cuisine.
