This ancient castle stands by the sea in the city of Cape Coast. It was built by colonizers.

The castle was built by the Swedes in 1653 to trade gold. In the 17th century, it became a center of the slave trade. Colonizers brought inhabitants of the continent here, kept them in prison for several months, and then sold them to America or Europe.

Today you can visit this monument. Local residents and tourists can see the stone walls and old cannons, the dark dungeons where slaves lived, and the museum. Guides tell interesting facts about the history of this place.

Today, this important historical monument is a symbol of cruelty.
