Description
Independence Park was developed in the 1730's as a market place and is centrally located by the Cathedral, the Circus area and the Port Zante shopping complex in Brasseterre. Formerly the site of a slave market, the square was renamed "Independence Square" when St. Kitts & Nevis gained political Independence from Britain on 19th September 1983. The stone fountain in the centre commemorates the introduction of piped water to Basseterre in the 1800's. The figurines at the top of the fountain are decorative nymphs.
