Awesome environment full of amazing histories of things you just only read in a book. You can feel it there

History still remains an integral part of our development. This facility once again reminds us that there are no external African enemies but we're out own enemies. Nice one to everyone who helped to protect this relics of history.

The tour guide did a good job. I think his name is Oga Solomon(not quite sure) and the tourists we met made the tour hilarious and fun. On a serious note, the museum was neat, every piece well explained, had no dust. There is a place to park your cars. Lastly, you are allowed to take as many pictures as you want.

My guest and I had a wow experience at the museum. The tour guide, Mr. Hundeyin was amazing. He narrated interesting historical events, showed us mind blowing artifacts, locations including the point of no return. Guess what? My American guest who was visiting Nigeria for the first time was able to trace her ancestors to the Williams family at Ikorodu. All thanks to Mr. Hundeyin, the amazing tour guide. Please visit the Badagry Heritage Museum today and always.

There are no words for this place. It was too emotional 💔

If you have never been to a slave museum, this is not a bad one. They have multiple artifacts that speak in general about the history of slavery and the trans Atlantic slave trade. Unfortunately you don’t get a lot of specific information about the role Nigerian played in the slave trade, and Badagry specifically. The museum is a 3 hour drive from Lagos, over terrible roads, so it’s questionable whether the trip is worth it.

Badagry Heritage Museum was built in 1863 as the District Office of the British colonial government. The museum is one of the most comprehensive exhibitions on Transatlantic Slave Trade in West Africa. The Transatlantic Slave Trade started in Badagry inv1473 and ended in 1888. Badagry was part of the European Slave Coast exporting an average of 17,000 Slaves annually to the United States and The Caribbean Islands. Badagry is very safe and its friendly people are waiting to give a warm welcome at all times.

It is a great place to visit. There's a story it holds which resonated strongly with me. The tour was beautiful and the stories well preserved and presented. My experience was really rich as we visited in a group.

This place houses the history of slave trade in Nigeria. There is a specific focus on the heritage of pre and post-transatlantic slave trade in Badagry. The museum consists of eight galleries each dealing with particular themes relating to local heritage and the transatlantic slave trade. Guided tours are available. The museum is managed by the Nigerian Cultural Commission.

It was very valuable time to know the history for me. A lot of Nigerian students visited to learn about that. I thought knowledge that history gives you graceful forces. Everyone should know and learn this terrible history in Africa.

Visiting Badagry Musuem and Slave House was interesting and saddening. Historical artifacts dots this space. A guide gave us insight on the prehistoric slave trade, and explained how they were captured and moved across the sea. These landmarks and items need to be preserved on standardized forms. We saw the first story building and slave hub. Good place for students and tourists to visit.

The Badagry Heritage Museum or Badagry slave museum is one of the museums in the Western coast of Africa that extensively narrates and projects what the slave era looks like, this is because badagry itself is one of the biggest slave port during the period of it existence. With original relics and The perfect story, good atmosphere and linked to other tourist attractions in Badagry, Always serves as a great tour experience that is very educative and enlightening for anybody from any part of the world. #BADAGRY #slavetrade #slavery #history #nigeria #sewedortours

I love the place and it is a place to visit to learn and know more about the slave trade in Nigeria

I saw alot of things here ... They leave everything you need to know about the African slavery. And the guy that took us around did really well too. The place is nice for excursion

Historic! Established in the year 2002 as government owned museum. This building used to be the office of the legendary Lord Lugard, which was evacuated in 1958 just 2 years before the Nigerian independence. It's halls are filled with pictures, images, shackles, chains, relics etc of the slave trade era. It's a place every African or person of African descent should visit.

I visited Badagry Heritage Museum and Slave Point of No Return with my fiancé Uriel. We had a blast! I didn't want to leave. I was so overwhelmed with different emotions and very grateful that God allowed us the opportunity to visit. I miss Naija, can't wait to go back!!! Love from the U.S.

Badagry heritage museum with great insights of Nigeria's history and our journey from slave trade to freedom.

So much history!

This is a place to learn about the Nigerian (African) story. How our ancestors were taken as slaves to the point they could not return home. It's a story to be heard and seen.

Went on a tour of Badagry with KayakInLagos and checked out the museum, listened to stories of the slave trade. There are pictures, sculptures, and some of the stuff used during that time. If you get emotional easily, brace up. Fun part, you can get cheap souvenirs from the souvenir shop

So many historic artefacts that tell the story of the slave era in nigeria can be found here. It's a great treasure of history.

You don't regret going there ☺️

What a rich heritage... Helping us understand our roots and roles played by our forefathers to secure our freedom..

Wonderful experience it was visiting the BHM and having to listen to the curator talking slave trade in Africa at large..

The museum was interesting with fact figures and images

A very beautiful historical building which is a nice tourist attraction center I would love anyone visiting badagry to check out. Lot of sculpted works indicating the long old slavery period where men and women were chained and then taken as slaves to other countries to work. Below is also an artwork of a damaged boat as well as clothings of different people ranging from men to women to little children who were killed due to the damage to the boat and their clothings were preserved till date at the badagry heritage museum . This museum is really a very nice place to learn more about slave trades and also beautiful environment to look at.

Historically significant space

Badagry travel and tour museum is a must for every citizens of Nigerians to knows much about, because is our forefathers heritage and what they went through during the slaves trades back then with other regions and countries

Same story from different story tellers 😉History!!!!

Badagry Heritage Museum, lots of historical landmarks and facts about the slave trade It would be special to give it a visit.

Cool

The Badagry heritage Museum served as the district office during the colonial era. It was the office of the district officer and Lord Luggard administered there. The Lagos State government saw that this place must be preserved, so they converted it into a museum. The Badagry heritage Museum is not 100% ready but 75%-80% ready due to the interior renovation. This museum houses most of the materials used in the slave era. You could find the chains at which the slaves where being chained with in different sizes, the ones for adults, women, and children, replica of the ship in which the slaves were used to be transported, the well they drank water from, how the slave market looks like, pictures showing how a farm and a domestic slave looks like and many more. It's a place to visit.

Renovated to becoming one of the state of the art sites in the city, this museum is history packed full of slavery artifacts since the 18th century.

Great Museum that gives a mental picture of slavers and how excruciating the pain was from torture they got from slave masters.

Great experience with lots of historical revelations

Come see where civilization started in Nigeria

A very good Museum that truly showcases the history of Slave Trade in Africa, Nigeria as a case study.
