Brismtone Hiill Fortress
The strategic location of our island also led to our place in history as one of the most advanced colonies in
the Americas. So if history is your love, you’ll have a very busy stay in St. Kitts. So diligent have we been in
honoring our past, UNESCO has designated our Brimstone Hill Fortress restoration a World Heritage Site.
This is but one of many living museums of historical significance you will see on our island. Along the way
you will be amazed at the innovations that led St.Kitts to become a world leader in sugar cane cultivation,
and an inspiration for the Industrial Revolution in the process.
