Plaquemine Depot Market

The Plaquemine Depot Antique Market is located in the former Plaquemine railroad depot building, located in the heart of the Plaquemine Historic District. Built in 1926 under the Huey P. Long era, the brick structure was the center of town activities from the early 1900s to the mid-century.
From 1997 until recently, the Plaquemine Depot Market had been operating as a flea market. In 2006, a merchants co-operative was formed for the purpose of transforming the original venue into an Antique Market. The shops at the Plaquemine Depot Antique Market are not unique but they are certainly outstanding. Individual merchants offer American and European antique furniture, and enhancements such as home decorator items. The jewelry offerings range from antique to reproductions and new items. Collectibles and furniture are abundant and span several periods of history.
