We love seeing St. Francisville celebrated! Countr We love seeing St. Francisville celebrated! Country Roads Magazine takes a look back at some of the people, places and preservation efforts that helped shape St. Francisville into the community visitors know and love today.

When voting opened for Louisiana Life Magazine’s 2026 Best Town in Louisiana, Visit St. Francisville launched a campaign asking our community, businesses, visitors and everyone who loves this little town to show up and vote and y’all did! Thank you to everyone who voted, shared our posts and helped bring this recognition home.

Of course, St. Francisville didn’t become special overnight. This recognition celebrates generations of people who have loved and cared for this community, the local businesses and attractions that bring it to life today, and the people who continue to show up for St. Francisville. We’re proud to build on that foundation and excited about where St. Francisville is going next.

As Mayor Andy D’Aquilla said:

“We love it here, and we are honored that others see what we have always known — St. Francisville is truly a special place.”

We couldn’t agree more.
