AKAYE

Arcahaie general

This gallery features pictures from downtown Arcahaie, with a focus on the main square and its statue of Dessalines and dedication to Catherine Flon, who sewed together the Haitian flag from the French tricolour. For more on this historic moment, see the Merotte gallery below as well. At the end of the gallery is a selection of photos from a sugar mill near Merotte. It's mentioned in L'Habitation Sucrière Dominguoise by Michel Philippe Lerebours (Les Editions des Presses Naitonales).

Mewòt, Akayè

Nan nò sant vil la, gen yon moniman ki make Desalin chire drapo trikolò franse a poul kreye premye drapo ayisyen an ke Katrin Flon koud. Anfas mi kote yo pentire drapo a, gen Lakou Grann Guitonn ki tankou yon peristil ke yo refè an memwa Guitonn (Plak ki nan galeri nou wè la a, di ke Guitonn te ede Desalin anpil nan lit pou endepandans ayisyèn nan.)
