Area Information



Alexandria's site was a natural one for settlement because of its location on the Red River, which is one of the area's main arteries of transportation. In 1769, the section of what is now Rapides Parish was deeded by France to Spain. Alexandria developed rapidly as a trading post, serving as a center of traffic between the French, Spanish, English, Americans and Native Americans. The area's lumber industry growth in the latter part of the 19th century and the opening of the area by the railroads allowed Alexandria to prosper immensely.
 
    
  Alexandria's most popular attraction is the Alexandria Zoo. It features over 600 animals from all over the world as well as an award-winning exhibit on the Louisiana habitat. The Alexandria Museum of Arts is one of 4 accredited art museums in the state. The River Oaks Arts Center is a contemporary visual arts and crafts center. Kent House is one of the oldest surviving plantations in Louisiana. Alexandria's Mardi Gras began in central Louisiana in 1994, and now has an estimated parade attendance of 110,000. Other cultural needs are met by Ballet Alexandria, the Coughlin Saunders Performing Arts Center, the City Park Players, the Family Playhouse and Red River Dance Theatre Company.
