Gibsland, LA

Gibsland is a quiet community in Bienville Parish with deep roots and a surprising amount of history. Life moves at a relaxed pace here, though the area gets its share of road-trippers thanks to its famous connection to Bonnie and Clyde, who met their end just south of town. Locals and visitors gather for the annual Bonnie and Clyde Festival as well as the vibrant Jonquil Jubilee each spring. Between its peaceful rural setting and its proud heritage as the home of historic Coleman College, Gibsland is a tight-knit town full of distinct character.
