Culture & History
Danish settlers built this red-walled stone fort in the 1670s to defend Charlotte Amalie Harbor, which it still overlooks. It has served since as a government building, a courthouse, a jail and a place of worship, and now works as a museum where visitors see the dungeons, courtroom, chapel and rooftop.
