Iberia, the parish seat of Iberia Parish, lies on the banks of Bayou
Teche. Iberia Parish's culture is a mixture of French,
Spanish, and Acadian influences which results in a blend of Old
World heritages and the spirit of young America. New Iberia
was incorporated in 1836. In 1868, with the creation of Iberia
Parish, it became the parish seat. Noted for our warm
hospitality, a trait inherited from our early settlers, New Iberia
is fondly called "Queen City on the Teche." Iberia
Parish is noted for it's delectable French-Creole cuisine,
particularly it's seafood. You'll be rewarded with history and
culture, a feast for the senses, sights, sounds, tastes, unlike
anything you've ever experienced.
