The Roseau Old Market, situated behind the Dominica Museum and along the seafront, has a rich history dating back over 300 years. This covered market was once the site of significant political gatherings and the center of the island’s colonial slave trade, as well as the location for executions. Today, visitors can explore the bustling stalls filled with fresh fruits, aromatic spices, handmade crafts, and typical tourist souvenirs and t-shirts. The market’s vibrant atmosphere and historical significance offer a unique glimpse into Dominica’s past and present.
