Description
The Donaldsonville, LA courthouse, aka the Ascension Parish Courthouse, is an example of Romanesque Revival architecture. Here is info from http://www.nps.gov/nr/travel/louisiana/don.htm
"The Donaldsonville Historic District is located on the west bank of the Mississippi River and encompasses an area of about 50 blocks. The buildings, about 640 of them, date mainly from the period of 1865-1933 and include residences, commercial, and public buildings, five churches, and three cemeteries, of the Roman Catholic, Protestant, and Jewish faiths. The Donaldsonville Historic District is architecturally significant because it contains the finest collection of buildings from the pre-Civil War era to 1933 to be found in any of the Mississippi River parishes above New Orleans."
