History

Here, the last remaining Carib Natives in Grenada jumped off a 40-meter-tall cliff later named Caribs' Leap to their deaths in 1651 rather than face domination by the conquering French. Thus the town was named Sauteurs, which is French for "jumpers". The trees and grotto erected in 1664 by Dominican Fathers to make a souls for Caribs and their place are a wooden deck from the century to today. The St Patrick's Catholic church were founded in 1721 but in 1784 the British government handed the church to St Patrick's Anglican church but today the church was destroyed by fire and its a police station today. In 1840 the St Patrick Catholic church were construction and today the church is present in Sauteurs.
