Description
The Nottoway Plantation in Louisiana—once called the “White Castle”—was the largest antebellum mansion in the South. But beneath its grand columns and marble staircases was a brutal reality: over 150 enslaved people were forced to build and maintain this estate, generating wealth through their suffering.
This wasn’t just a home—it was a monument to exploitation. Today, it’s marketed as a wedding venue, but we can’t forget the blood, sweat, and broken families that made it possible.
History isn’t just beautiful buildings—it’s the people who were erased to build them.
