Catherineberg Sugar Mill Ruins

Catherineberg Sugar Mill Ruins is an historic site located in the Virgin Islands National Park, east of Cruz Bay on Saint John, U.S. Virgin Islands. The ruins are an example of an 18th-century sugar and rum factory.

To reach Catherineberg, turn north on John Head Road from Centerline Road. There is room for several cars to park right next to the windmill.

The "most impressive" ruin is that of an unusual windmill tower.
