Triumph (French: Ville de Triomphe) is a location in unincorporated Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana. It is located on the south bank of the Mississippi River.
It is the closest town to two National Historic Landmarks: Fort Jackson (Louisiana) (down river from the town; though due to a bend in the river to the north east) and (across the river) Fort St. Philip.
The 1960 U.S census listed Triumph as having a population of 900. The U.S. census no longer counts Triumph as seperate community, including it as part of the Buras-Triumph, Louisiana census designated area.
Like most of Plaquemines Parish, Triumph was severely damaged by massive storm surge from Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
