1. St. Bernard's Catholic Church Marker
This church, built in 1933-34 by local craftsmen, was the pinnacle of Rev. P.A. Borel's administration.
The exterior bricks were made from our own factory. The twin steeples and fine French Romanesque architectural lines makes it truly unique.
Erected by Breaux Bridge Historical Society.
