History

The Devon House mansion was built in 1881 by George Stiebel, Jamaica’s first black millionaire. After 100 years of different owners, the estate and grounds were completely refurbished in 1982 by the Government of Jamaica and opened by Queen Elizabeth II. Devon House was declared a national monument in 1990 by the Jamaica National Heritage Trust and has been a popular tourist and event destination ever since.
