Joe Biedenharn, the man who bottled the first Coca Cola, built this house in Monroe, Louisiana. His daughter, Emy-Lou Biedenharn, who lived in the house for most of her life, remodeled it, decorated it and also designed the garden. Admission to the site includes a short film, an entertaining talk with a “soda jerk”, a tour of the house, a walk through the garden, admission to the Bible Museum, and a five cent bottle of Coke dispensed from an antique machine.
Everything is accessible except for the second floor of the house.
There isn’t any nearby parking for large RVs. Vans and smaller RVs will fit in the museum lot on Speed Street. Museum

ReplyDeleteWe spent a lot of time at this place mostly because the staff was really knowledgeable and also very nice.
