Steeple Building

Steeple Building Review

Built by the Danes in 1753, the former church was the first Danish Lutheran church on St. Croix. It's now a museum containing exhibits on the island's Indian inhabitants. It's worth the short walk to see the building's collection of archaeological artifacts, displays on plantation life, and exhibits on the architectural development of Christiansted, the early history of the church, and Alexander Hamilton, the first secretary of the U.S. Treasury, who grew up in St. Croix. Hours are irregular, so ask at the visitor center.
