The Hypolite Bordelon house was built five miles from Marksville on the Red River in the early Louisiana Creole Style of architecture.
Some members of the Bordelon family lived in the house until 1941 when Pierre Bordelon died. The house is furnished with articles from 1820 - 1940 period.
In 1979 the house was given to the city of Marksville and moved to its present location on Tunica Drive West, in the center of town. The house was restored and is listed on the National Historic Register because of its architectural and historical significance.
