The Bermuda National Trust is a charity, established in 1970 to preserve, protect and promote Bermuda

In the National Trust’s care are 77 properties, covering 260 acres and representing much of the best of Bermuda’s heritage – a variety of traditional historic houses, islands, gardens, cemeteries, nature reserves, farmlands and coastline. In addition, three museums display an outstanding collection of artefacts owned and made by Bermudians, and tell the intriguing story of the island’s development. The Trust has a strong education programme, focused on encouraging appreciation of our history and what it means to our future. We are also a leading advocate and activist for Bermuda’s natural environment.
