While the museum’s structure is, indeed, an historic artifact, the museum’s collection offers a variety of objects emphasizing the island’s past. Relics from native Indian populations provide a glimpse into early history while flora and fauna displays showcase Grenada’s natural history. Old engines and huge copper kettles, once used for boiling cane juice, provide insight into Grenada’s economic development, while colorful Carnival costumes reflect Grenada’s culture.
