Cape Coast Castle, located in the Central Region of Ghana, is one of the country’s most significant historical sites. Built in 1653, it played a pivotal role in the transatlantic slave trade, serving as a hub where enslaved Africans were held before being shipped to the Americas. The castle features dark dungeons, a “Door of No Return,” and a museum that preserves artifacts and documents from the era. Today, it stands as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a powerful reminder of Ghana’s history and resilience.
