National Museum of Ghana

Accra Central, Accra · Greater Accra

Ghana's oldest and largest museum, covering archaeology, chieftaincy regalia, highlife and the road to independence.

The local tip

Labels are thin in places, so hire a guide at the desk or read up beforehand; the regalia and highlife rooms are the highlight.

Check before leaving

Confirm opening days, as the museum has run reduced hours during refurbishment.
