ATTRACTIONS - -

ST. GEORGE

St George, Bermuda
St Peter's Church, St George, Bermuda
The first permanent settlement in Bermuda, St. George is full of historic buildings as well as charm.  Accordingly, it has been designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

It is smaller than Hamilton and is more of a town than a city.

St Peter's Church (left) is the oldest Anglican Church outside of the British Isles and the oldest Protestant church in continuous use in the New World.   It has been a place of worship since 1612.

In King's Square, St. George's main square, there is a recreation of the sailing ship Deliverance.  It was built in 1610 by English settlers who had been shipwrecked on Bermuda while on their way to Jamestown in America.  They were the first people to inhabit the islands and their exploits led to its colonization.

Visitors can also try out the stocks in King's Square, which were an early form of punishment in the colony. A ducking stool is nearby.  The Town Hall at one end of the square is still the seat of local government in St. George.

Unfinished Church, St George, Bermuda


On the outskirts of the town is the 
Unfinished Church.  Begun in 1874, this 
church was envisioned as a replacement 
for St Peter's.  However, a lack of funds 
and disagreements among the 
congregation resulted in it never being 
completed.  Today, the remains of the 
Gothic structure are a romantic ruin.
Fort St. Catherine, Bermuda

Near St. George is  Fort St. Catherine. The original 
fort was built to defend the English colony from the 
Spanish.  It was rebuilt several times and the current 
structure dates from the 19th Century. Now a national 
park, it is open to the public and houses a museum.

St George, Bermuda
St George is a tourist-friendly town, that has been 
lovingly preserved.  It has several streets that are 
pedestrian only.  (However, there are also streets 
that can be quite busy with traffic).  Despiet some 
commercialization, the town in many ways, it exudes 
the charm of old Bermuda.
