(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Port Louis was founded in 1735 by the French. The population of the city is now largely made up of the descendants of laborers who immigrated from India in the 19th century.
The Citadel dominates the city. The Mauritius Institute, dedicated to the study of the island's flora and fauna, is in Port Louis.
