EDITOR REVIEW: GREATER CHARLOTTE AMALIE. Built in 1672 and named for Danish King Christian V, Fort Christian is the oldest standing structure in the United States Virgin Islands. Through the years this National Historic Landmark, designated as such in 1977, has been used as a jail, the town hall, a courthouse, a church and a governor's residence. Today the Virgin Islands Museum is located here. Displays of period furnishings, artworks and exhibits relating the islands' cultural and historical significance are free for the public to view. You can purchase souvenirs in the gift shop. |
