Ussher Fort

Ussher Fort

Jamestown, Accra · Greater Accra

A restored 17th-century Dutch fort on the Jamestown shoreline, now a small museum on the transatlantic slave trade.

The local tip

Pair it with James Fort a five-minute walk west, then ask the guide about the old Dutch cemetery hidden behind the seawall.

Check before leaving

Check whether the museum galleries are open; sections close for renovation without warning.
