Sulphur Mines in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana

Calcasieu Parish contains 192,768 people. The parish name actually comes from an Atakapa Indian word meaning “crying eagle.” Sulphur is located in southwestern Louisiana with a population of about 22,000. The city of Sulphur is named for the sulfur mines found there. The sulfur was discovered by a German immigrant in the 1900s, and he subsequently became famous for his method of excavation. The city itself lies on Interstate 10, which is strategic for West Calcasieu Port transportation purposes. It’s less than an hour’s drive from the Texas border.
