Welcome to Baton Rouge

Baton Rouge, the capital city of Louisiana and the state’s second largest city, is located on the eastern bank of the Mississippi River.  The estimated population of the city is just over two hundred and twenty-eight thousand and five hundred.

The city has a rich history that dates as far back as 12000-6500 BC with evidence of early inhabitants found along the Mississippi River.  Fast-forward to 1699 when French explorer Sieur d’ lberville led a group of people up the Mississippi, were they found a red pole sticking out of the ground marking the boundary between two tribal hunting grounds.  The explorers called it the French name le baton rouge, translating as the “red stick.”

Baton Rouge was later incorporated in 1817, eventually replacing New Orleans as the state capital in 1846.  During the civil war economic growth in the city was effected dramatically.  The only businesses that survived were those that had to do with the Confederate Army.  In today’s economy, the city’s largest industry has to do with petrochemical production and manufacturing.  ExonMobil’s Baton Rouge refinery is the fourth largest in the US, and the world’s tenth largest.  The city’s government also employees many residents.  Technology firms and research hospitals also have a strong economic presence in Baton Rouge. 

Special Points of Interest

Baton Rouge has several activities and attractions to occupy people’s time.  Louisiana State University has a strong presence in the city.  Walk around the campus.  Make sure to stop by Mike the Tiger’s habitat on your way to Tiger Stadium to see a college football game or Alex Box Stadium to see a college baseball game. 

If you prefer other attractions take a stroll in downtown Baton Rouge, stopping to get a bite to eat at one of the area’s top restaurants.  After your appetite is satisfied, take a trip to the Louisiana State Capital or the Louisiana Art and Science Museum.  No matter your interest, the city of Baton Rouge has something suitable for you.
