Tremé (pronounced Tre-May) sits adjacent to the French Quarter and is the oldest African-American neighborhood in the United States. Tremé is a vibrant area steeped in music and culture. Come explore this iconic gem and revel in New Orleans Creole and Black history with its roots in Congo square and Storyville, the birthplace of such Jazz greats as Alphonse Picou and Trombone Shorty.

Tremé was originally settled by Free People of Color; often referred to as Creoles, whose unique experience helped shape the civil rights movement. It is the hallmark of African-American history not to be missed. Today, Tremé is home to artists, musicians, and craftsmen and is a living, breathing, joyful piece of New Orleans history.
