Experience the rich military history of Ghana at the Kumasi Fort and Military Museum. Located in Kumasi, the cultural center of the Ashanti region, the fort was built in 1820 by the Asante King Osei Tutu Kwamina as a replica of the Cape Coast Castle but was later taken over and rebuilt by the British in the 1890s. The museum displays an extensive collection of military artifacts, photographs, and historic documents, representing various periods of Ghana's past, from the Asante-British wars to the more recent history of the country's peacekeeping missions.
