Located in Pointe Coupee Parish, southwest of the Mississippi border and formed along the banks of the False River originally made New Roads attractive to businesses that focused on agriculture: sugar cane, cotton and pecans, among others. It was named the parish seat for Point Coupee Parish in 1894, and it remains so today. New Roads Main Street is also part of the state’s Main Street Communities program and New Road’s restored buildings reflect this care.
