This unique village pays tribute to the knowledge of the Ancients and tells the tumultuous history of the island. A remarkable duty of memory!

La Savane des Esclaves, nestled in the countryside of Trois-Ilets in Martinique, is the fruit of Gilbert Larose's determination. Passionate about the history of his island, he created this village museum, dedicated to his Kalinagos Indian and slave ancestors. On a three-hectare wooded plot, he cleared and rebuilt traditional huts using local materials. An emotionally-charged historical immersion into the past and heritage that make Martinique so rich. Allow 1h30 for the visit, no reservations required. A must-see.

histoire et vérite sur l'île
Un regard objectif et documenté sur l'histoire de la Martinique et les conditions de vie au 19ème siècle.
Récemment, une prolongation sur la période pré colombienne.
Incontournable.

18 ans d'un lourd labeur à mains nues pour Gilbert qui voulait qu'on se souvienne de la vie de ses ancêtres !! Résultat une reconstitution très réussie ...et une rencontre avec un homme riche de connaissances et d'une telle simplicité !! un vrai moment de bonheur !! A noter qu'on apprend aussi des choses sur des plantes médicinales !
