Annaberg Plantation, Cruz Bay

Annaberg Plantation is a must-see spot for people who want to understand St. John's past. Now under the Virgin Islands National Park umbrella, the plantation dates to 1721. The hillsides above were once planted with the sugar cane processed in the plantation's stone windmill and sugar factory. The remains of a slave village can be spotted near the entrance. The park often has staff on hand to provide information. No credit cards accepted.
