Astronism in Montserrat refers to the presence of the Astronist philosophy and religion in the British Overseas Territory of Montserrat. The operations of the Astronist Institution in this territory are under jurisdiction of the Astronist Superiate of Montserrat which is itself under the direct jurisdiction of the Astronist Superiate of the United Kingdom, a national subsidiary of the worldwide Astronist Institution.
The Astronist Superiate of Montserrat oversees the construction and maintenance of observatories and planetariums throughout its jurisdiction. Montserrat is split into three parishes and is set to hold one Grand Observatory, which will also be the only Astronist observatory in this British Overseas Territory.
This national branch of the Astronist Institution manages the official representation and depiction of Astronism throughout this territory, including efforts to protect the identity of the philosophy with the intention of further disseminating it throughout the territory.
It is the Institution alone that is granted the status of proprietor to the philosophy in this territory as any other organisations or institutions proclaiming such a role are deemed as unauthorised proprietors and are therefore considered as part of the anti-Institutionist movement.
