There are a lot of weird and wacky roadside attractions here in Louisiana, but few are as odd as this one. Next time you’re in Abita Springs make sure you take some time to check out this interesting museum – you’ll be glad you did.

The Abita Mystery House (also known as the UCM Museum) is one of the most unique roadside attractions you’ll ever come across in Louisiana.

TheConstantRambler/Trip Advisor From pottery to sculptures, found objects, and Louisiana-themed items, the best way to describe this place would be “interesting and unusual.”

Established in 2007 by John Preble, the Abita Mystery House contains thousands of folk art objects.

He has been collecting unique items for decades.
