Yaa Asantewaa Museum, Historical museum in Ejisu Municipal District, Ghana.
The Yaa Asantewaa Museum features exhibits of artifacts, photographs, and documents that demonstrate the heritage of the Ashanti Kingdom.
The museum, established in 1992, preserves the legacy of Queen Mother Yaa Asantewaa who led the Ashanti rebellion against British colonial forces.
Exhibitions within the museum present traditional governance structures and social customs of the Ashanti people during the pre-colonial period.
The museum provides multilingual guided tours and educational programs for students, researchers, and visitors interested in Ghanaian history.
A fire in 2004 destroyed numerous original relics, leaving only clay pots as surviving artifacts from the initial collection.
