Bienville
Parish Info



This community was probably the first permanent settlement in what is now Bienville Parish. Its pioneers were Baptists from South Carolina who quickly established a church and school. The school became Mount Lebanon University in 1853, but closed during the Civil War to serve as a high school and a confederate hospital. After the war the school was moved to Pineville and became Louisiana College. There are eight houses in the town that are on the National Register of Historic Places.
