Description
Kaffie-Frederick's Hardware Store (picture), constructed in 1892 is listed in the National Register of Historic Places and is the oldest continuously operated business in Natchitoches, LA, established in 1863. Throughout the years, the business was a supplier of basic goods needed to run a farm, household or a trade. Studebaker wagons, Moline and John Deere products, school books, groceries, clothing, and even caskets were just a few of the goods available. The interior of the store is relatively unchanged with original cash registers being used daily as is a freight elevator that was installed in the 1890s. Large skylight openings are still present, reminders of the need for natural light prior to electrical service being introduced. The store is still in operation today.
