Anna Regina is the capital of the Pomeroon-Supenaam Region of Guyana.[1] Anna Regina stands on the Atlantic coast, northwest of the mouth of the Essequibo River, 19 km north of Adventure, and was established as a town in 1970.[2] Its population was 2,064 in 2012.[3]
History
There had been a Dutch plantation at the site since the early 1800s. Later it changed ownership to an Englishman who had two daughters named Anna and Regina.[4]
In 1988 the Damon Monument was erected to honour Damon, a slave who was executed after protesting against the introduction of apprenticeship.[5] Other sites include Damon's Cross, the Aurora Chimney and estate House, Anna Regina Bridge, Anna Regina Chimney, St. Bartholomew's Anglican Church, and several Dutch tombs.[6]
