Description

Embark on a journey of remembrance from Accra. Visit a sanctuary honoring the African diaspora, see powerful sculptures, and connect with your roots.
Just two hours from Accra lies a profoundly moving sanctuary, a place where ancestors' stories are honored, their spirits remembered, and their legacy preserved through powerful art and sacred space.

This place was created to honor the souls of forebears from across the African continent who endured the unspeakable horrors of the Middle Passage. Here, their memory lives on through installations and sculptures that bear witness to their strength, their humanity, and their unbreakable spirit.

The sculptural portraits capture what words often cannot, the raw emotions etched into the faces of those who were stolen from their homelands. See shock, fear, anguish, and defiance preserved in stunning detail. These aren't just sculptures; they're visual testimonies that bridge the centuries between their suffering and our present, connecting us to the collective experience that shaped the African diaspora.

This is more than a museum visit, it's a homecoming, a reckoning, and a healing. Every piece has been thoughtfully crafted to tell the stories of pain transformed into resilience, of tragedy that gave birth to diaspora communities' incredible strength and cultural richness.

Walk away changed, connected more deeply to your roots, and carrying the weight and beauty of knowing where you come from. For anyone seeking to understand their history, honor their ancestors, and experience the transformative power of coming face-to-face with our shared past, this is an essential pilgrimage.
