Oranjestad
At the old city you will find the recently
restored Fort Oranje that overlooks the bay. It
was from here that the flag incident took place.
The museum is nearby and for a small fee you do
not only have entrance but are also a member for
life of the Historical foundation. The
Government Guest house is nearby and after 300
years still houses the office of the Lt.
Governor. The Hotel will furnish you with a map
of the city and all it's historical sites. There
are not so many shops on the Island but a
grocery, pharmacist, post office and bank are
available. Although the official language is
Dutch, everyone on Statia speaks English.
