St Michaels Cathedral Barbados
The Cathedral of St. Michael & all Angels began as the 2nd parish church of St. Michael , because rhe 1st church , on the site of the present St. Mary's , had become too small for the rapidly growing population. The land was given by Colonel William Sharpe , & the building of the church by Robert Cullimore was completed by 1665. It was consecrated on November 29th. But the church had a stormy history-literally! In the hurricane of 1675 the roof was so badly damaged that it had to be partly covered with palmetto leaves. The next century was a succession of events- disrepair , collapse of walls & rebuilding of the entire North wall.

Bridgetown - Barbados : Vorweihnachtliches Karibik-Feeling
Am 13.12.18 legen wir an der 5.Insel unserer Kreuzfahrt an - in Bridgetown auf Barbados.
Die Stadt Bridgetown im Parish Saint Michael ist die Hauptstadt des karibischen Inselstaates Barbados und ebenso dessen Haupthafen und wirtschaftliches Zentrum. Ursprünglich wurde die Stadt Indian Bridge genannt, nach einer schon in indianischer Zeit errichteten Brücke über den heute Constitution River genannten Fluss. Die Stadt wurde 1628 von den Briten gegründet und hat heute ungefähr 7.000 Einwohner, dazu kommen über 80.000 Einwohner in Vororten, was bedeutet, dass ein Drittel der Bevölkerung von Barbados hier lebt. Sie leben hauptsächlich vom Tourismus, produzieren aber auch Zucker, Rum und Melasse.
Der Mündungsbereich des Constitution River ist heute ein Yachthafen. Er wird im Zentrum der Stadt als Careenage bezeichnet, weil hier früher die Segelschiffe kielgeholt wurden (engl.: careening), um die Rümpfe zu säubern. Direkt an der Careenage liegt der National Heroes Square (früher: Trafalgar Square), der zentrale Platz der Stadt, wo jeden Tag von sechs Uhr morgens bis sechs Uhr abends laut gesetzlicher Regelung die Flagge von Barbados wehen muss. Hier sind auch die Parliament Buildings (früher: Public Buildings), der Sitz der beiden Kammern des barbadischen Parlaments zu finden. Im Zentrum des Platzes steht das Nelson-Denkmal, das 1813 eingeweiht wurde und damit fast 30 Jahre älter ist als die Nelsonsäule in London. Am Heroes Square beginnt mit der Broad Street die wichtigste Geschäftsstraße Bridgetowns, auf der sich Kaufhäuser mit internationalem Angebot, kleinere Geschäfte sowie Banken befinden.
In Bridgetown gibt es daneben einige bedeutende Bauwerke britischer Kolonialarchitektur. Zu nennen sind hier das alte Barbados Mutual Building, die anglikanische St. Michael’s Cathedral, die Anlage des Harrison College und die St. Anne’s Garrison. Die gesamte Altstadt von Bridgetown ist zusammen mit der Garnison seit 2011 ein UNESCO-Welterbe.
Barbados ist ein Inselstaat im Atlantik und Teil der Kleinen Antillen. Barbados liegt nordöstlich von Venezuela in der Karibik und wird geografisch zu Mittelamerika gerechnet. Die ehemalige britische Kolonie ist seit 1966 vom Vereinigten Königreich unabhängig, ist aber als Commonwealth Realm souveräner Mitgliedsstaat des Commonwealth of Nations und mit der britischen Krone in Personalunion verbunden.
