About The Barbados Museum:
The Barbados Museum & Historical Society was founded in 1933 and dedicated to the preservation, research and exhibition of all things Barbadian. Through its programming activities, it aims to provide a space in which persons learn about our history and explore our culture and heritage. The Barbados Museum & Historical Society is housed in historic buildings which were originally used as the military prison at St. Ann’s Garrison. During the 18th century, the Caribbean was the scene of numerous military conflicts, primarily between England and France who fought for supremacy. The building of garrisons, forts and naval dockyards throughout the region was a direct result. The present site is situated within the World Heritage Property of Historic Bridgetown and its Garrison.
