This is the third installment of a multi chapter series we are calling "Abandoned Acadiana". Chapter 3 features The Holy Rosary Institute in Lafayette, Louisiana. Holy Rosary Institute was originally founded in Galveston TX. in the late 1800's and later built a private school for African-American women in Lafayette, LA. in the year 1913.
There are future plans to turn the abandoned property into a thriving community center. Work has already begun on the property.

Special thanks to Corey Jack for the narration.
