A small outdoor café was moved to the southern edge of the property and is popular among locals and visitors alike. Horatio Nelson Museum The Horatio Nelson Museum is located to the southeast of Charlestown at Bellevue. The facility houses the Nevis Island Archives of historical records. This museum featured the Horatio Nelson Collection, an extensive collection of Nelson memorabilia collected by the late Robert Abrahams, a Philadelphia lawyer who had a home in Nevis, who compiled the collection during his life and first displayed it at his Nevis home. Mr. Abrahams donated the artifacts to the Society, which he believed was most capable of caring for the collection, and the Society began construction of the Horatio Nelson Museum to house the collection in 1990. When Admiral Nelson was a young sea captain, he was stationed on Nevis during the mid-1780s. In 1787, Nelson married a young widow who was a Nevis plantation owner's daughter-in-law, Frances (Fanny) Nisbet. In 2022 the Society embarked on the redevelopment/re-branding of the Nelson Museum into the “Nevis Maritime Museum & Nelson Collection”, which will delve into stories such as Nevis boat building and fisheries traditions (lighters, fishing boats, traps, etc), shipwrecks (ie. HMS Solebay and HMS Childsplay) as well as the fascinating story of Pirates in Nevis. The new museums will not only spark an interest in tourists, but through the development of a variety of educational programming and tools, can also aim to inspire the next generation of Nevisians to champion the cause of cultural heritage and cultural industries in their communities. Joan Robinson Biodiversity and Oral History Resource Centre The Bellevue facility also houses the Joan Robinson Biodiversity and Oral History Resource Centre, which was opened on April 22, 2009, and which currently consists of two laboratories. One is dedicated to recording and preserving the flora and fauna of Nevis and the other is a video editing suite, which is designed to preserve the oral history of the island by digitally recording the oldest people on the island, to preserve their memories of life on Nevis during the early parts of the 20th century. The Biodiversity and Oral History Projects were jointly funded by The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the Canada Fund for Local Initiatives (CIDA), the British High Commission (Barbados); and The Strabon Project (French Embassy, Saint Lucia). Among the notable aspects of these two projects is
