Istre Cemetery Grave Houses
text:
The Istre Cemetery Grave Houses are three historic grave houses located in Istre Cemetery in Morse, Louisiana. The houses are the only three known surviving examples of traditional Acadiana grave houses. The structures were built in 1925, 1935, and circa 1900; they each resemble a small gable-roofed house. It is important to distinguish between grave shelters and grave houses. Shelters, common in Protestant southern cemeteries, are primarily built with a roof, four corner posts and a fence prote
