A town born in the center of three districts

The municipality of La Trinité occupies the eponymous bay on the North Atlantic coast of Martinique. It is located opposite the capital, Fort-de-France, from which it is about nineteen miles (30 km) away. The town's origin dates back to 1658 when it was part of a community of six municipalities (Le Lorrain, Sainte-Marie, Le Marigot, Le Gros-Morne, Le Robert, and La Trinité) nicknamed Capesterreo. It broke away from the community following the creation of a parish in the center of the three – hence its name Trinité – neighborhoods of Petit Brésil, La Citerne, and Rue Paille. Subsequently, the cultivation of cocoa, cotton, and sugar cane enabled La Trinité to develop commercially.
