Some Castries Streets are 200
years old!
Oh how things have changed! Castries was not
always the capital of St. Lucia. Before that, the capital was located at
Vigie, as indicated in old French maps secured by the late Bishop of
Castries Monsignor Charles Jesse. On the map of the town at the end of the
18th century, it is clear that some of the streets in Castries today are two
hundred years old and older. The city has changed but the names have
remained the same throughout succeeding generations. |
