    Various forms of art are represented such as masks, royal objects, architectural elements, ritual and ceremonial sculptures, potteries, and much more. This tiny museum is a real hidden gem however it is not well labeled and without guidance or prior knowledge, it would be hard to appreciate at their real value all the pieces featured. We had a private tour to some of the more interesting items, and stories about their ethnographic heritage. The majority of the items are originated from the grasslands of Cameroon. Moreover, there are also pieces from Congo, Nigeria and Gabon. It was a wonderful cultural experience in every way. Check out my Instagram (IG: kelledstyle) for more pictures :-)

    Hard to find, but worth the effort. Not open on Sunday. Business hours. Great collection: there were many beautiful relics. We received a private tour in French and English. The guide was kind and very knowledgeable about Cameroonian history and culture. We also met the owner who is local royalty.

    Blackitude museum is the place to be while in Yaoundé. There are wonderful guides which help you to tell the story in a beautiful way. The founder of this museum is very open to discussion and very sympathetic. Let you all go there.

    (Translated by Google) This is a good place to visit. We discover various art objects that are only the products of the artistic genius of the manufacturer. It's great by the way I send him my congratulations. (Original) Voilà un endroit bien à visiter. On y découvre divers objets d'arts qui ne sont que les produits du génie artistique du fabriquant. C'est génial en passant je lui adresse mes félicitations.

    This remains one of the most amazing museum experiences I’ve ever had. The cultural diversity within Cameroon is astounding! A curator spent 2 hours with my friend and I, explaining elaborate details about many exquisite artifacts. Would love to return someday

😐 I recommend 🇨🇲👍Do you have friends, brothers, sisters or colleagues with whom you would like to share an ecotouristic experience? You can come along with them for the visit of the museum and municipal lake of Yaoundé with different activities around. That is, 2,000 FCFA for children and 5,000 FCFA...
