Provided in an ebrochure format, the Lafayette Houses of Worship Tour highlights the historic churches throughout downtown Lafayette. Downtown Lafayette remains the heart of our community with its active businesses, inviting public areas, and community festivities. The beautiful turn-of-the-century architecture as illustrated by our 1885 courthouse, businesses, historic neighborhoods, and churches make this a wonderful place to walk and explore.
