The Louisiana Brigade Winter Camp, also known as Camp Carondelet, was the site of an

Confederate Army, whose distinctive buttons (bearing a pelican emblem) have long been found by relic hunters. Obvious remnants of the camp include the remains of 25 huts, some of which have been damaged or destroyed by road-building activity through the site, and chimneys representing the locations of an estimated 50 more.[2]

The camp location was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
