EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1906, showcases two of Bermuda's most historic landmarks: The Oldest Cedar Tree in Bermuda and Devonshire Church. The ancient cedar tree, with its gnarled trunk and sprawling branches, stands proudly in the foreground, a testament to the island's rich history and natural beauty. The Oldest Cedar Tree, believed to be over 600 years old, is a symbol of resilience and endurance, having weathered countless storms and sunny days in the Atlantic Ocean. In the background, the picturesque Devonshire Church, also known as Devonshire Parish Church or St. Mary's Church, can be seen. Established in 1618, this beautiful stone building is the oldest Anglican church in continuous use in the Western Hemisphere. Its whitewashed walls and red-tiled roof blend seamlessly with the lush greenery of the surrounding graveyard, where gravestones, graves, and tombs bear witness to the island's fascinating past. The British Overseas Territory of Bermuda, located in the North Atlantic, has a rich history that spans over 400 years. This photograph, taken over a century ago, captures a moment in time when the island's deep-rooted Christian traditions and natural wonders were already well-established. The Oldest Cedar Tree and Devonshire Church continue to be cherished symbols of Bermuda's unique heritage, drawing visitors from around the world who seek to experience the island's history and natural beauty firsthand.
