Hamilton (Bermuda)

    0.04 sec.

Hamilton

Capital (since 1815) of Bermuda, on Bermuda Island; population (2001 est) 1,000. It is the main centre of employment in Bermuda, and is the site of the central government. It has a deep-sea harbour, and is a major port of call for cruise ships, contributing to Bermuda's dominant tourist industry.

Hamilton was founded in 1793 to replace the former capital of St George. Features include the National Library, the courthouse, and two cathedrals, including the Cathedral of the Most Holy Trinity (1911).
