Fonds-Saint-Jacques was for a long time the only agricultural domain of Martinique held by churchmen: on a surface of 230 hectares, it sheltered a convent and a sugar factory. In 1762, there were 500 slaves living there. A real cemetery of slaves buried according to Christian values has been discovered there. In addition to the beautiful green garden, you can visit the remains of the sugar mill, the refinery, and the chapel of Saint Jacques.
