This historic building and it's contents are in great need of some tender loving care by a curator of museums. If such a persons could only volunteer their time and knowledge, this could be a great place!!

We enjoyed the short climb of stairs to the museum and spent just under an hour. Well worth the $3 per person fee. Lots of history from British rule to now, interesting display of the volcanic activity, and some original furniture. The poor Victor phonograph needed to be restored. Too bad we weren't staying longer!
For a small admission fee of $3 you can learn a significant amount about the history of Dominica. There needs to be some upkeep of the artifacts because there will be nothing left in about 5 years based on some of their current condition. It is located directly across the street from the cruise ship exit, you cannot miss it.
A small but informative museum that was bypassed completely by the (largely American) cruise liner passengers. Cheap entry, and you should allow 45-60 minutes for your visit.
We had never heard of Dominica before our cruise ship stopped there, but it was my favorite stop. The Rosseau Museum is right across from the cruise port and was well worth the few dollars admission. It really told the story of the island and was both informative and humbling. Take the time to visit! My 17 year old daughter enjoyed it as well and the small size made it very enjoyable to her as well.
We enjoyed the Roseau Museum. Very small but filled with enough information on Island History. Has old newspaper articles, artifacts, and is set in a location right near the market and waterfront.
