St. Maurice Plantation is a historic mansion on a plantation off the banks of the Red River of the South in Winn Parish, Louisiana, USA.
History
The house was built for the Protho family, and it was completed in 1845. It was designed in the Greek Revival architectural style. By 1850, members of the Protho family and their African slaves died of the yellow fever. A decade later, during the American Civil War of 1861-1865, the plantation was taken over by the Union Army.
It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since April 3, 1979.
