JOSEPHINE DE BEAUHARNAIS
Josephine—or Rose, as her family called her—grew up across the bay from Fort-de-France, near Trois-Ilets, today one of Martinique’s prettiest villages and just a 20-minute ferry ride from the capital. She was baptized in the town’s terra-cotta-colored church, which is now found on rue de l’Impératrice Joséphine. The same street leads out of town to her family’s plantation that now houses the Musée de la Pagerie, devoted to Josephine.
