Roman Heritage in Barbados. A tour of the historic Clifton Hall Great House.

Roman Heritage in Barbados. A tour of the historic Clifton Hall Great House Hey everyone, welcome back! Today, I’m taking you on an unexpected journey through the historical treasures of Barbados. After visiting the tomb of Ferdinand Paleologus at St. John's Parish Church, I stumbled upon a remarkable piece of history that I never expected. Just down the road from the church, I found the Clifton Hall Great House. Now, here’s where it gets fascinating—this grand estate was actually built by Ferdinand Paleologus himself in 1658, and it’s tied directly to his Byzantine heritage. Imagine that—a piece of the Byzantine Empire right here in the Caribbean! As I explored the area, I couldn’t help but feel the connection between this magnificent home and the rich history of its original owner. What’s even more incredible is that the house has been preserved so well that it still holds stories and artifacts from the past. It’s not just a house; it’s a living piece of history. Join me as we step inside and uncover the secrets of Clifton Hall, from its majestic columns to the fascinating tales of its past. This is a journey into the heart of Barbados's history like you’ve never seen before. #barbadosheritage #Barbados #barbadoshistory #historyofbarbados Thanks for watching
