| About these ratings | ||
Schoelcher Library should make your travel itinerary for its history and ornate design, not for its books. The building was originally designed and built for an 1889 exposition in Paris before it was shipped to Martinique and reassembled along the west side of La Savane. It was named in honor of slavery abolitionist Victor Schoelcher.
The library is open Monday afternoons, all day Tuesday through Friday, and on Saturday mornings.
