Fun Facts

Constructed in 1833, the house was built nearly two decades after the famous battle, serving as a plantation home rather than a battlefield structure.

The house is a classic example of Greek Revival architecture, characterized by its grand columns and symmetrical design.

It is located within the Chalmette Battlefield, which is part of the Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve.

Despite its name, the house was never owned by the Beauregard family; it was named after a later owner, Judge René Beauregard.

In the late 19th century, the Malus-Beauregard House operated as a hotel, catering to visitors of the battlefield.

The National Park Service undertook significant restoration efforts in the 1960s to preserve the house's historical integrity.
