Destrehan is a historic community located in St. Charles Parish, Louisiana, situated along the Mississippi River approximately 25 miles west of New Orleans.

The town is notably home to the Destrehan Plantation, which was built in 1787 and stands as the oldest documented plantation house in the Lower Mississippi Valley. This French Colonial-style mansion serves as a significant cultural landmark, representing the area's rich colonial history and the economic importance of plantations in Louisiana's development. The community maintains strong ties to its French Creole heritage, which is reflected in its architecture and cultural traditions.
