Istorija
[uredi | uredi izvor]Modernu prestonicu, Kingstaun, osnovali su francuski doseljenici ubrzo posle 1722. godine, iako je Sent Vinsent imao 196 godina britanske vladavine pre nezavisnosti.[6]
Botanička bašta, osmišljena 1765. godine, jedna je od najstarijih na zapadnoj hemisferi. Vilijam Blaj, koji je postao poznat iz Pobune na Bauntu, doneo je ovde seme hlebnog drveta radi sadnje, oko 1793.[7]
