Schœlcher, Administrative division in Fort-de-France area, Martinique.
Schœlcher extends over 21 square kilometers near the capital Fort-de-France, maintaining strong residential zones and commercial districts along the coast.
The division received its name from Victor Schoelcher, a French politician who contributed to the abolition of slavery in French colonies in 1848.
The annual commemoration of slavery abolition on April 27 brings together residents at the Perrinon building for ceremonies and cultural exchanges.
The territory connects directly to Fort-de-France through multiple transportation routes, with the Euro serving as the official currency in this French territory.
The 'lanmè lè Zans Chelchè' swimming competition takes place in April, featuring various distance categories from 100 meters to 10 kilometers.
