Magnolia Plantation (Schriever, Louisiana)
Magnolia Plantation, built in 1858, is a private residence located on Louisiana Highway 311, west of New Orleans and south of Schriever, Louisiana. The plantation was built to cultivate cotton, which was a critical part of Terrebonne Parish's antebellum economy. The plantation house is one of six surviving Greek Revival plantation houses in the parish. A portion of the film 12 Years a Slave was filmed at the plantation.
The plantation was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
