Morne Fortune

Morne Fortune is a hill and residential area located south of Castries, Saint Lucia, in the West Indies.

France regained possession in 1802 with the Treaty of Amiens, but Lieutenant-General William Grinfield defeated French Governor Brig.

The 1st West India Regiment manned Apostle's Battery on 16 December 1888 when the port became a coaling station.

Morne Fortune also hosts the Saint Lucian campus of the University of the West Indies as well as Sir Arthur Lewis Community College.

Government House, the official residence of the Governor-General of Saint Lucia, is on the northern side of Morne Fortune.
