Hermann-Grima + Gallier Historic Houses operates two National Historic Landmark properties—the Hermann-Grima House (1831) and the Gallier House (1860)—that sit in the French Quarter of New Orleans and are open to the public. The sites are accredited by the American Alliance of Museums, aligning them with accepted standards for museums and historic sites. Located in New Orleans, Louisiana, the organization preserves and presents 19th-century architecture and urban history for visitors. In January 2022, the organization expanded its educational program by partnering with the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience to train its docent staff to facilitate dialogic conversations on difficult topics such as slavery during tours. The operation is described as maintaining a relatively small staff. The institution is part of the broader museums, historical sites, and zoos sector.
