The Angolan National Museum of Slavery

The Slavery Museum was built in 1977 by the Culture and Tourism Ministry in order not to forget the slavery that had caused great harm to Angola, which gained its independence in 1975, and ruined the social fabric in the past.


Located on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean, the museum neighbors the Mussulo island and Kwanza River, an important trade route where victims of the slave trade lived in the past.
