Independence Square is the town square for Basseterre and is filled with local history.
During the slave period, the slave auctions were held in Independence Square;
slaves were kept in tunnels under the Georgian House and brought up to the
square for bidding. Today the square is alive with family outings, impromptu
gatherings, and as a place to gather for parades and parties

The Circus
Today
Basseterre's French heritage is not nearly so prominent as its British colonial
past. The centerpiece of the city's evocative Georgian architecture is its
Circus, a diminutive roundabout modeled in proper Victorian patriotism after
Piccadilly, in London. In the middle of the Circus stands the bright green
bronze of the Berkeley Memorial Clock, an ornate, cast iron tower with four
clock faces and more than a little architectural decoration.
