The governor's mansion was a large estate owned by Jean-Jacques Blaise d'Abbadie, the French colonial governor of Louisiana, during the eighteenth century. It was located in New Orleans, near the Place d'Armes.
A frequent host to parties, the mansion's courtyard was spacious and pleasantly decorated with greenery, as well as a gazebo, which was set up in the center. However, with fence walls around the premises and guards permanently keeping watch over the three entrances, the estate's grounds were difficult to access without proper invitation.
