Oak Alley Plantation is a historic plantation located on the west bank of the Mississippi River, in the community of Vacherie, St. James Parish, Louisiana, U.S. Oak Alley is named for its distinguishing visual feature, an alley (French allée) or canopied path, created by a double row of southern live oak trees about 800 feet (240 meters) long, planted in the early 18th century — long before the present house was built. The allée or tree avenue runs between the home and the River. The property was designated a National Historic Landmark for its architecture and landscaping, and for the agricultural innovation of grafting pecan trees, performed there in 1846–47 by a gardener.

dbo:abstract
  • La plantation d'Oak Alley (en français: de l'« allée des chênes ») est un site historique des États-Unis situé en Louisiane, à North Vacherie (paroisse Saint-James) sur la rive droite du fleuve Mississippi, entre La Nouvelle-Orléans et Bâton-Rouge. Elle a été fondée en 1837 par Jacques Telesphore Roman, frère du gouverneur de la Louisiane André Bienvenu Roman et beau-frère de Valcour Aimé, propriétaire du "Petit Versailles", l'autre grande plantation de la paroisse, l'un des plus grands planteurs de sucre américains. Oak Alley était appelée "la Grande dame de la Great River Road". Avec son « manoir » datant d'avant la guerre de Sécession et les dix hectares qui l'entourent, Oak Alley est aujourd'hui la propriété de la Oak Alley Foundation, une organisation à but non lucratif. L'ancienne plantation est désormais divisée de la façon suivante : un complexe résidentiel de 30 hectares entoure la propriété, 243 hectares sont loués pour la culture de la canne à sucre et 182 hectares sont boisés.

La proprietà è stata dichiarata monumento storico nazionale nel 1974. È considerata la più grande piantagione del sud degli Stati Uniti. (it)
  • Oak Alley Plantation is een plantagehuis in St. James Parish in de Amerikaanse staat Louisiana. Het ligt ten westen van North Vacherie. De plantage dankt zijn naam aan een 240 meter lang pad dat van het huis naar de Mississippi leidt en aan beide zijden omgeven is door grote eikenbomen. Deze bomen zijn in het begin van de 18e eeuw geplant en ouder dan het huidige landhuis. Het landgoed staat op de lijst van het National Register of Historic Places. Op een deel van het 455 hectare grote terrein wordt nog steeds suiker verbouwd. (nl)
