Saint Bernard Parish is a community of 47,000 people (2018) in Louisiana, at the southern edge of the Greater New Orleans region. The chief historical attraction in St. Bernard Parish is the Chalmette Battlefield (part of Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve), at which the Battle of New Orleans took place on January 8, 1815, during the War of 1812.
Unless you're downriver in Plaquemines Parish, the only land routes into Saint Bernard are through New Orleans.
