- Evergreen Plantation is a plantation located on Louisiana Highway 18 near Wallace, Louisiana. The main house was constructed mostly in 1790, renovated to its current Greek Revival style in 1832, and the plantation's historical crop was sugarcane. Some of Django Unchained was filmed here, Big Daddy's Bennett Manor. Also the Church from the Kill Bill Movies, the Chili Restaurant from Death Proof.
Evergreen is amazing - We could not find entrance - it was October.. drove right up to it.... It was so wonderful ... love all the history.
Did slaves used to work in this plantation??
@@Smiggsss Uh yes
Damn. Are we there yet? Longest driveway ever.
Yes it was long, 2600 feet I believe. That was the hardest part of filming it by drone.
@@Clif77x Where is the tree lined drive ? What was it used for ?
@@PrettyGoodLookin Right off of Hwy 18, entrance to the cane field today.
@@Clif77x TY. But, Where is it in your video ? ( the tree lined driveway )
@@PrettyGoodLookin In the very opening of the video.
🤩This property is absolutely STUNNING👌
Just watched Antebellum, which was filmed here. Awesome film.
I’m reading a photography book by Clarence John Laughlin: ‘Ghosts along The Mississippi’. He photographed Louisiana’s past in extraordinary photos of old plantation homes. This one is featured in his book. It dates: 1830’s. Eryone should check it out from your local library.
thanks
Thanks so much. Going on a road trip east this summer and this is one of my family's stops. Super excited!!
Welcome! Be sure to also check out Oak Alley Plantation as well, its not very far from Evergreen, maybe 10 miles west in Vacherie.

Correct it was. The scene with Big Daddy. I was just messing with you, that was a line from the movie. (Calvin Candie)
Clif Deroche Yea I kno after Calvin says that line Django responds with I'm curious what makes you so curious

The beginning of the video rolling up the drive way looks like a scene from Django

I wonder what that white stuff is on the roofs?
Mr. Clif
Are you still doing drone footage?
I would love to see ALL the plantation’s in drone footage. I belong to a Facebook page that research’s and post old pictures or new pictures of Louisiana plantation’s and we all would be so grateful for the footage especially Ashland Belle Helene’.
Thank you
Rena

No, sure didn't.

Why couldn’t they tell something about the plantation while showing the video?
Just a quick video I made one day when they were closed down, it's not anything official from Evergreen. I have a little info in the top portion.
SO IS THAT THE MISSISSPPI? THEYD HORSE CART THE CANE RIGHT THERE PROBABLY?
Home Sweet Home --------------- But ManDinGo was there FIRST Remember
Please change the music. I had to mute it to be able to watch it
Turn down volume that simple...
I did turn it down, smarty pants, but that is just as bad watching it silently. I am allowed my own opinion, you know, unless you are a democrat!
Wildly inappropriate music.
😆
Would you prefer banjo or blues?
All you have to do is turn your volume down...
Don't we get to see the inside!?!?
😡😞
Ya gotta pay fo' dat, sugar.
@@georgerounsaville1809 LMBO you're funny!!!
It is closed according to Google
Beautiful! I would have loved to have seen it as a working plantation back in its day.
People seem to only focus on the slaves and their ill treatment.
I am very fascinated by the entire working practice of the plantation. They were huge! They surly made fortunes both nationally and through exports.
Too bad there isn't a TV series that focuses on it. We had 'Roots', it's time for the real working plantations to come to the big screen. It is absolutely fascinating.
I believe the exports side of the business eventually led up to the Civil War, because NY demanded more money from import/export tariffs and warehouse storage.
Not to mention the political side- State Representatives based upon population of a State, GDP, and the vast amount of money the Southern States had.
If I had the money, I would make a TV Special Series of the real working plantations back in their prime time; all the way up to the Civil War.
It should be from a political perspective, not from an abolitionist viewpoint- but from a Southerners'.
