Memory, Land and Healing

This gallery is currently in development. It will confront the transatlantic slave trade that passed through Elmina, examining its profound impact on the people of this coast and how the town carries that memory today.

This history is being written firmly from Elmina’s perspective grounded in local voices, ancestral memory, and oral traditions. It will open to the public as soon as our collaborative research and community consultations are complete.

In the meantime, we invite you to explore our existing digital collections covering Elmina Castle, the Dutch Cemetery, and the town’s living heritage elsewhere on this site.
