Romeo Spikes

A walking tour guide told us that these spikes were often put on homes in the French Quarter in order to prohibit boys from climbing up poles to sneak into windows of second floor bedrooms of girls who they wanted to visit at night.

Voodoo Tomb @ St. Louis Cemetery #1

Cemeteries in New Orleans are notable because they are above-ground. The city is located too close to water with not enough depth in the land to accommodate below-ground burial sites.

Below is the tomb of Marie Laveau, New Orleans's most famous voodoo priestess. Voodoo is a religion practiced in parts of the Caribbean that combines elements of African, Catholic, and Native American religious practices. Laveau lived from 1801-1889.

The Silver Man (aka Frisco Popper)

This guy is a legendary street performer of the French Quarter. You can read a story about him here: https://www.wdsu.com/article/camille-knows-nola-normal-silver-man-has-an-abnormal-job/3370817#
