Cape Coast Fort & Dungeon

July 23, 2013


We arrive in Cape Coast, capital of the Central Region. We were fortunate enough to receive a tour of the Cape Coast Fort & Dungeon that was initially built by the Swedish in and was used as a holding centre for enslaved Africans during the trans-Atlantic slave trade.

I was not able to take photos of the dungeons, however, there are more details about the trans-Atlantic slave trade in the photos for Elmina's St. George castle.
