The City of La Trinité, La Sous-Prefecture de La Trinité and La Fondation du Patrimoine invite you to discover a breathtaking panoramic location between land and sea. It was bombed on February 11, 1762 by six ships totaling nearly 15,000 men, as part of a general attack carried out against the island by the English under Hervey.
This former fort, built on the site of Pointe Sainte-Catherine in 1658, underwent numerous works of comfort from 1713 to be completed in the 1720s.
It bears many names related to the Pointe du Fort, Pointe de la citadelle and Sainte-Catherine.
This military arsenal, littered on the heights of Rue Paille, wants to reveal its greatest mysteries.
Everyone be at the rendezvous.
