Christiansted National Historic Site was established in 1952 through the initiative of concerned local citizens. The park’s mandate is twofold - to preserve the historic structure and grounds within its boundaries, and to interpret the Danish economy and way of life here between 1733 and 1917. The park consists of seven acres centered on the Christiansted waterfront/wharf area. On the grounds are five historic structures: Fort Christiansvaern (1738), the Danish West India & Guinea Company Warehouse (1749), the Steeple Building (1753), Danish Custom House (1844), and the Scale House (1856). The National Park Service uses these resources to interpret the drama and diversity of the human experience at Christiansted during Danish sovereignty – colonial administration, the military and naval establishment, international trade (including the slave trade), religious diversity, architecture, trades, and crime and punishment. We are thrilled to be able to work closely with National Park Services and to assist them with educating St. Croix visitors on issues of conservation, species protection, environmental impact and most importantly to share the historical and ecological significance of St. Croix, Christiansted National Historic Site, Buck Island Reef National Monument, and Salt River Bay National Historical Park and Ecological Preserve.
The visitor's information center, which is located in the old Scale House, is a good place to start your visit and obtain information relative to the history of the site. Activities includes tours of the museums at Fort Christianvaern, the Steeple Building and the Scale House. Buck Island Trips, Sunset Sails, and Private Charters all depart from the Christiansted waterfront, adjacent to this park. Please make a point of planning extra time before or after your excursion with us to see this beautiful park! |
