Sint Maarten Museum

The Sint Maarten Museum offers a look at the island’s history and heritage in the heart of Philipsburg. Its exhibitions cover early inhabitants, the salt industry, slavery and emancipation, migration, and the shipwreck of HMS Proselyte. It’s a worthwhile stop for visitors who want to understand more of Sint Maarten beyond the beach and shopping streets. The museum is at 7 Front Street, within walking distance of the Boardwalk.
