What to Know
Arcadia's Bienville Parish Fair celebrates a north Louisiana piney woods parish where the site of Bonnie and Clyde last ambush — on a rural road near Sailes — draws history enthusiasts, and where timber, poultry, and cattle define the agricultural economy of the Kisatchie National Forest parishes. The area's broader history includes notable events and landmarks dating to 1934.
Before You Go
Arcadia is near the site where Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow were killed in a law enforcement ambush on May 23, 1934. The Bonnie and Clyde Ambush Museum preserves the history. Kisatchie National Forest Driskill Mountain — Louisiana highest point at 535 feet — is in neighboring Claiborne Parish.
