The museum illustrates a comprehensive and wide-ranging history of the nation, including sections on slavery, archaeology, whaling and fishing, the military coup of the 1980s, plantations, and the island's first inhabitants. The venue itself dates back to 1704, when it served as an army barracks; later, it was a prison for British female inmates. Check the schedule ahead of arrival, as the museum frequently hosts folk and dance performances.
