National Museum, Heritage museum in Basseterre, Saint Kitts and Nevis.
The National Museum occupies a colonial-era Treasury Building near Basseterre Bay, featuring exhibits about local history and island development.
Built in 1894, the Treasury Building served as a gateway for maritime commerce until 1996, when it transformed into the National Museum in 2002.
The museum presents collections spanning from pre-Columbian artifacts to independence memorabilia, including traditional carnival costumes and sugar industry displays.
Located on the second floor of the building, the museum provides guided tours and educational programs for visitors interested in Saint Kitts heritage.
The structure retains its original lighthouse dome, which directed maritime traffic through Basseterre Bay during the active trading period.
