Saint-Pierre is one of the most important attraction points of the island. In this town, destroyed by lava and mudslide during the volcanic disaster of 1902, there remain original parts of the old cathedral, of the prison dungeon and of the church of the fort. A visit to the ruins gives a good idea of the economic and cultural importance of the town up until its demise. The town received the title of Art and History Town in 1990.
