During a royal tour of the Caribbean, the British monarch visited the site of the historic 1823 Demerera rebellion in Guyana.
The site marks the location of a major uprising where hundreds of enslaved people were killed by colonial leaders. Following the suppression of the revolt, many of the surviving participants were subsequently executed.
The visit forms part of the ongoing royal itinerary in the region, bringing renewed attention to the historical events surrounding the colonial-era slave rebellion and its legacy in Guyana.
