Discover the haunting history of Elmina Castle, one of the oldest and most significant European-built forts in Sub-Saharan Africa. Established by the Portuguese as a trading post in the 15th century, it later became one of the most important stops on the Atlantic slave trade route, serving as a prison and holding area for enslaved Africans who were transported to the Americas. Today, the castle serves as a poignant reminder of Ghana's turbulent past and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
