Old Road Town

Founded in 1624 on the west coast of St. Kitts, Old Road Town was the first British settlement in the Caribbean, established by a group of settlers aiming to cultivate tobacco. Today, visitors can explore the historic Wingfield Estate, which offers a glimpse into the area’s agricultural heritage. The town is also home to ancient Carib petroglyphs, providing a tangible link to the island’s pre-colonial past. The combination of these elements creates a rich tapestry of history and culture for those who visit.
