It has a lot of history and is not as popular as the other forts such as Osu Castle, Elmina and Cape Coast But I found it was quite unique and had a decidedly different character from the other forts.

Lovely and serene environment. Ideal for relaxations. Good place for those who need a place to think, write and learn some history

Very beautiful historic site. A must-visit for anyone coming into Ghana. Chronicles the life and contributions of Ghana's first president Kwame Nkrumah. Indeed these type of men were scarce back then in Africa, and am afraid they are going into extinction today. We must read his, and others stories like Mandela, and be challenged to do more for the greater good!

The landscape of the Memorial Park, presents it as quite serene. There is a wheelchair access area. But the sitting area for eating or snacking must be improved. But a nice place for photographs. Much to learn about Kwame Nkrumah.

Echoes of the silent voices.

Historic Fort

Very interesting fort! The gatekeeper doubles as excellent guide and gives very good information about the place. A must see in Ghana!!

For me, I was able to get a feel of where Ghana is coming from through this visit. This is a very good initiative by the Government of Ghana. The place is well kept and easily accessible. Within the Museum, you get to see everything that has got to do with Kwame Nkrumah, from his pictures to his famously worn dresses to his office table, his school locker and so much more. I also love the fact that everything was kept as it was most especially the vandalised statues of Kwame Nkrumah. The garden also provides sitout and picnic opportunities.

It prove that Anomabu is first capital city of Gold coast

Looked interesting, but we couldn't get inside. We only discovered later (on our way out of the village) that we could have arranged a tour from the local tourist info centre as you come into the village. So learn from us

A tour of Fort William makes an interesting contrast to the castles of Elmina and Cape Coast. This fort has been repurposed many times over the years, showing the struggle of a town reclaiming its history. This interesting but less complicated tour feels like it is still evolving. The truth is out there.

I had a good time here in this memorial park. I've been taught things I didn't know about Dr Nkrumah.

Very beautiful place

Fort William is a fort in Anomabu, Central Region, Ghana, originally known as Anomabo Fort and renamed Fort William in the nineteenth century by its then-commander, Brodie Cruickshank, who added one storey to the main building in the days of King William IV.[1] It was built in 1753 by the British after they thwarted a French attempt to establish a fort at the same place. Two earlier forts had been established at the same site, one in 1640 by the Dutch, another in 1674 (Fort Charles) by the English. Fort Charles was abandoned in the late-seventeenth century.

Slave trade fort

Opportunity to understand some history

Tells me about our rich history

Historic

Quite cool to be. Enjoy the breeze and waves of the sea. Colonial structures and awesome people

it is nice and beautiful place.

Well was finding out history...and it moved me to de first capital of gold coast...and it seems it been left to go bad for a while...but still history is Rich...... Anomabo

That's where i finish school

Good one

Great

If we are to keep it as part of our cultural heritage, the place needs some serious renovation. It looks abandoned and lacks proper maintainance. It will be difficult to cash in on tourism if nothing is done to give the Fort a serious face-lift.

Kwame Nkrumah Mausoleum building in Ghana The Kwame Nkrumah Mausoleum and memorial park is located in downtown Accra, the capital of Ghana. Quick Facts: Established, Location ... Kwame Nkrumah Mausoleum Kwame Nkrumah's grave inside the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial in Accra It is dedicated to the prominent Ghanaian President Kwame Nkrumah. The memorial complex was dedicated in 1992, and is situated on the site of the former British colonial polo grounds in Accra. The mausoleum, designed by Don Arthur, houses the bodies of Kwame Nkrumah and his wife Fathia Nkrumah. The building is meant to represent an upside down sword, which in Akan culture is a symbol of peace. The mausoleum is clad from top to bottom with Italian marble, with a black star at its apex to symbolize unity. The interior boasts marble flooring and a mini mastaba looking marble grave marker, surrounded by river-washed rocks. A skylight at the top in the mausoleum illuminates the grave. The mausoleum is surrounded by water, a symbol of life. A video of the mausoleum can be found here. See also Atta Mills's Mausoleum at Asomdwee Park in Accra, Ghana.

Cool historic place to visit

Quite an interesting place. The structure is indeed unique and the histirt of one of the foremost Pan Africanist very enlightening. Not forgetting the amazing attendants. Thank you once again

Educative

Nice place to visit for cool moment

It's a shame we can't maximize our tourist sites

Has information about the cruel slavery activities that occurred in Ghana. Currently has an art gallery which has artefacts for sale.

Great experience of the colonial architecture.

Very dirty despite it's unique history

There's not a lot i have to say about this fort, our tour wasn't very informative as I'd have liked and i fear the history behind this fort is slowly being lost, it looks important and hasn't worn out too much it's slowly becoming less of mememto of the past. Yh it's not as big as the others but it's these bits of info that adds up. I'd be happy if we could dig up more history behind it.

I highly recommend @ENQUIRY ECO TOUR to anyone visiting Ghana.For booking and reservation, kindly whatsup +233558798297 The price range,Car and guiding, everything is top notch....Book them for all your yours in Ghana

So much history at this museum! Would highly recommend a visit there!

Great place to visit when in Accra. There's so much to learn about Nkrumah, and this place is a good start. Drawback: the place needs more regular maintenance and better management.

Still a pleasure to go there , I have been there exactly 4 times I think Previously the fountains were having water , but not anymore , let us say for now Great place to learn more about a Pan-Africanist man who was Dr. Kwame Nkrumah With a slightly touch of renovation, the place will get his colours back Nice place , once again

Whilst the building is rundown and in dire need of renovation. The guide gave a great tour.

Nice Beach

That places is very interesting so I want everybody to come and enjoy

Good place to visit for any Pan Africanist that wants to know about a Giant in the struggle for Emancipation. Great place by all standards.

A must see when in Accra. Very helpful staff at the little museum but maintenance seems slightly lagging at such an historic sight.

Nice place to visit. A reminiscence of the Ghanaian heritage

Very lovely place to be

Touching

Hold good history on the story of kwame Nkrumah

Love to visit

place is dead mehn!

Nice history place to be

A lot of maintenance needed... it's sad to see a place like this in total abandonment

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful worth a visit (Original) Muito bonito vale visita

Amazing historical treasures

Forward Ever. Backward Never.

Unique place to at Accra

Disappointing visit. The mausoleum was okay. The parks were okay too. However, the museum looked like it was in a bad shape and there wasn’t much of a tour. Gift shop was closed as well. Expected way more for the memorial grounds of Kwame Nkrumah.

(Translated by Google) Fantastic place. Filled with important historical facts for the new generation. Historical memories of a liberator of English-speaking black Africa. Instigator of the unity of all Africa (Original) Lieu fantastique. Remplie de faits historiques importants pour la nouvelle génération. Souvenirs historiques d'un liberateur de l'Afrique noire anglophone. Instigateur de l'unité de toute l'Afrique

Is a historic place for all Ghanaians to be at...

The John Evans Atta Mills street that leads though Jamestown to the Mausoleum is a traffic prone area. The site itself is quite and serene. There is a garden area that bears many trees planted by several political figures across the world during their visits. Kwame Nkrumas car is also available for viewing on site but cased in a glass chamber where no one is allowed to enter but only view from outside. The tombs of Kwame Nkrumah and the wife are present as well as a Museum where no photography is allowed. Lastly there is a very old vandalised statue of Kwame Nkrumah without a right arm and head. The head sits next to it. History has it that, during a mob attack in the past. The angry protestor kicked it down, causing the damage and split of the statue parts. Which were long lost and found years after.

Interesting place to visit to understand a bit of Ghanian history. A bit run-down and in need of some upkeep.
