The map helps in taking the driving tour so you can take pics of the magnificent homes.
The town was used as rendevous point for the French in 1700's. In 1854 pro slavery Senator, David Atchison founded the town and in 1860 the railroad came through, and about this time Benedictine monks started the Abbey and college.

The magnificent homes from mostly late 1800's/early 1900's are the sites to spend time here. They have around 20 preserved homes and structures.
