Vermilion Inn

The Vermilion Inn, also known as Café Vermilionville, is a historic Greek Revival building in Lafayette, Louisiana, constructed around 1835. Situated near the Vermilion River, this two-story structure has witnessed significant historical events, including its occupation by Union troops during the Battle of Vermilion Bayou in 1863. Now surrounded by suburban development, the inn was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983, making it a notable site for tourists and researchers interested in Louisiana's rich history.
