Juffureh Essentials

Juffureh and neighboring Albreda are central to the history of the transatlantic slave trade in The Gambia. This collection features the UNESCO-listed Kunta Kinteh Island, home to the ruins of Fort James, and mainland sites like the 15th-century Portuguese Chapel and San Domingo ruins. The Maurel Frères Building serves as a museum documenting this era, while the CFAO Building stands as a reminder of later colonial commerce. Together, these sites provide a physical record of European arrival, trade, and the legacy of slavery in West Africa.
