Amuseum Naturalis at The Old House

Amuseum Naturalis at The Old House is a natural history museum in the French Quarter of Saint-Martin that displays exhibits about local wildlife and traditional farming methods. Located on a hillside, the museum features outdoor gardens and exhibition spaces for exploration.

The museum was founded to preserve the story of how Saint-Martin developed its natural environment and farming traditions. Inside the building, artifacts and documents tell the story of this agricultural past.

The exhibits show how African and indigenous traditions shaped farming and healing practices on the island. You can see how these customs continue to influence the way people grow crops and use plants today.

You can visit the grounds each day and explore at your own pace through outdoor exhibits and gardens. The hillside location means some walking is needed to reach all viewpoints and displays.

The site includes salt ponds surrounded by mangroves where you can watch native and migratory birds like hummingbirds and bananaquits. These wetlands offer a rare look at the island's natural ecosystems up close.
