Chretien Point Plantation is a pre-Civil War twelve room red brick mansion, located on twenty acres on the banks of Bayou Bourbeaux, two miles southwest of Sunset, Louisiana in St. Landry Parish. A Civil War battle was fought on the plantation grounds and Jean Lafitte was a tenant. The mansion was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. == Early history == The Spanish government made a land grant to Louis St. Germain in 1776. Joseph Chretien bought the property in 1781 and his grandson, Hipolyte Chretien II, inherited the land from his father. The plantation was a 3000 acre cotton farm with over 500 slaves. Hippolyte Chretien started construction on the mansion in 1831, and the two story big house was completed in 1835, when Chretien moved in with his wife Felicité. At one point Jean Lafitte resided on the plantation.〔(Chretienpoint.com: Plantation )- Retrieved 2014-06-13〕 Hypolite II died of yellow fever in 1839 and his wife took over the plantation〔(acadianahistorical.org )- Retrieved 2014-06-13〕 increasing the land holdings to a reported 10,000 acres.〔(Chretien Point Plantation history )- Retrieved 2014-06-13〕
