THIS IS A MUST, especially for those who are returning from the diaspora to reconnect with their ancestors. It blew me away. Stunning art and innovative installation. The tour brought tears to my eyes. So much effort was made to pay respect and focus on the poignancy and privilege of visiting. We laughed, we cried, we learned, we healed. Definitely go here! One day I will build a nearby cafe and healing center for after you leave because you're going to need a minute.

What a beautiful experience! The folks who work here are top notch! This space has beautiful and thoughtful art and incorporates history into the space! The space to honor the slaves is breath taking and a somber reminder of the pain and suffering of those who were taken from their homes. Finally, the experience near the end (I won't spoil it) wraps up the tour in a beautiful way. Everyone should visit!

This place is incredible. The amount of effort put into the project is insane. And this is still under construction. I’m just wondering what it’ll look like when it’s done. The road to the museum tho 🫣

This is one of the most underrated tourist sites in Ghana if you are a lover of art and history. The museum is creatively built with a curation of unique sculptures that tell the stories of Africa's past and the struggles of Black people. It takes an hour and a half to tour the various sites on the over 100 acres of land set aside for artistic display. Many more works are being commissioned at the museum. A dirt road leads to the site, so expect it to be muddy during the rainy season. There is a snack bar, rest area, and other amenities. It's a well planned tourist site in the bush.

one of the favourite places I've visited this year. Not too far from Accra (less than 2hrs drive). Beautiful historic monuments to appreciate.

Breathtaking, great initiative, a must visit tourist attraction place to feel and empathise with our fore fathers who went through that ordeal. Well Done to Kwame Akoto Bamfo

This place is a heritage of stories! Deep connections and amazing setup for a cultural museum. For the lovers of history I would say this is the perfect place. It is an evolving museum by Ghanaian artist Kwame Akoto-Bamfo. The museum has a special section dedicated to African enslavement.
and I'm in awe of their huge space that includes a studio, and an eatery at Kpateshie restaurant.. and options for camping whether as a visiting artist or an individual, yes you can take a history walk through and have a nap as well!! The museum installation makes up the entire place.
Kwame himself is one of the best curators in art direction and it's a must to find yourself at Nuhalenya off Ada Foah where the museum is...he is patient with narration and is well informed on the history and African Heritage. The place is pretty symbolic to everything African and I loved my moments there and would definitely go back!!

Great art and history.
However when I got there. They were doing some few renovations so I wasn’t allow to take pix at certain places.
Meanwhile I was charge full cost so I suggest that whenever they’re renovating, they shud just close the place .
Every visitor goes there to learn history and also take some memories along in the form of pictures and videos.

This museum is extremely well thought-out. I was impressed with how every item on site was there for a purpose.
The guide who took us around, who was an artist as well was extremely knowledgeable and an amazing story teller.
It's impressive the amount of land they have and what they plan to do with it. Strongly recommend it!

This place is as much a spiritual retreat as a museum. The memorial to the enslaved people of Ghana is one of the most powerful things I’ve ever seen.

A surreal experience. The artists are very knowledgeable about art and its various forms. For a rude awakening of the African self, I recommend this place.
