Cultural Heritage Sites
This selection highlights the pivotal landmarks of Accra’s history, from 17th-century colonial fortifications to monuments of the independence era. It features Osu Castle, Ussher Fort, and James Fort, which served as coastal trading posts and administrative seats for Dutch, Danish, and British powers. Complementing these are the National Museum—Ghana’s oldest museum—and dedicated sites honoring Pan-African leaders like Kwame Nkrumah and W.E.B. Du Bois. These locations document the transition from colonial rule to sovereignty and the enduring legacy of the Pan-African movement in West Africa.
