After receiving the city keys from the Mayor of New Orleans on the day 1 King Felipe and Queen Letizia continued their day with a visit to the historical exhibition.
Felipe and Letizia visited the “Recovered Memories: Spain, New Orleans, and the Support for the American Revolution” exhibition at the Palacio del Cabildo.
Upon arrival, they were received by the president of the Iberdrola.
The exhibition was organized by Iberdrola in association with the Louisiana State Museum.
The exhibition displayed the historical objects, documents, and artworks that explore the influence of Spain in the development of New Orleans, its support for the American Revolution, and the enduring legacy of Spain in American culture.
