Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park

In the heart of Accra, the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park commemorates Ghana's first president and a towering figure of Pan-Africanism, on the very spot where he declared independence in 1957. The marble mausoleum, ringed by fountains and statues, holds his tomb, while an on-site museum chronicles his life and legacy. It is the nation's most important monument to its founding.
