The Grange Estate is a historic landmark on St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands. It's located in the Caribbean near Puerto Rico and other U.S. Virgin Islands, including the British Virgin Islands. The home was built by James and Anne Lytton, who were related to Alexander Hamilton from Nevis. Rachel, Alexander’s mother, had been previously married when she returned to the island; along with the Hamilton family, they resided at the Grange Estate. She was later laid to rest in the Lytton family cemetery there.

We’ll tour a historic estate originally constructed around 1730 and completed by 1761; one section inspired Danish architectural styles for an area within the Danish colony. The main crop grown here was sugarcane, providing significant revenue for the farmhouse. You can learn about architecture from the early 1700s, along with information on past homeowners—including members of the Danish royal family. Discover more about life before emancipation (in 1848) until the devastating fire of 1858 destroyed much of what we know today. Throughout our visit you'll find remnants of Channey Plantation, rich in history tied to figures like Alexander Hamilton and his mother, Rachel Faucett. Enjoy authentic Creole cuisine served up at their café while browsing unique gifts available in their quaint little store. Remember tickets are required – purchase them beforehand via website or directly onsite!
