Here religious freedom has existed since the 1600's: the islands are predominantly Protestant; the second oldest Lutheran church in the Western Hemisphere held its first service in Charlotte Amalie in 1666, when Denmark occupied the island, and the second oldest American synagogue is on this island To all who visit and view, and – especially – express support and satisfaction: you are much appreciated!
