Charles Town Maroons Cultural Center and Museum
The Maroon’s Cultural Center, nestled in rural Charles Town along a lazy rolling white water river coming down from the Blue Mountains. The Maroon’s autonomy from the island’s government dates back to centuries old treaties and remains to this day. The “Colonel “of the local Maroons has created a rustic cultural museum of artifacts, tools, instruments and documents that date back to the time of pirates and the slave trade. His main goal in creating this museum was to teach the locals their culture and restore them to their Maroon identity.

El Centro Cultural Maroon está ubicado en la parte rural de Charles Town a lo largo de un río lento de agua blanca que baja de las Blue Montains. La autonomía de los Maroons (Cimarrones) en relación al gobierno regional de la isla remonta a tratados de hace siglos y se mantiene hasta el día de hoy. El "Coronel" de los Maroons locales ha creado un museo cultural rústico de artefactos, herramientas, instrumentos y documentos que datan de la época de los piratas y el comercio de esclavos. El objetivo principal detrás de la creación de este museo se relaciona con la enseñanza y preservación de la identidad Maroon a las comunidades locales.
