National Heroes Square

A civic space in the heart of Bridgetown where national memory, public life and the story of Barbados' National Heroes come together.

The experience

More than a square.

National Heroes Square sits within Bridgetown's historic civic core, close to Parliament Buildings and the Careenage.

The square provides a place to explore national identity through the Monument to the Barbadian Family and the recognition of Barbados' National Heroes.

Rather than treating the site as something to simply pass, Must See Barbados includes a separate interactive experience designed for visitors standing in the square or exploring it virtually.

Interactive experience
