Loango Slavery Harbour, Historical slave trade port in Kouilou Department, Republic of Congo
The port contains a stele marking the former slave market location and three mango trees along the path leading to the Atlantic Ocean.
From 1500 to 1867, this harbor facilitated the transportation of approximately two million enslaved individuals from Congo, Chad, Angola, and Gabon to the Americas.
The Kingdom of Loango established specific trading regulations with European merchants, controlling commerce activities through the port during the colonial period.
The site extends from Pointe Indienne to Matombi village, with access routes connecting through the former administrative district of Diosso.
Mango trees at the harbor mark the location where enslaved individuals received their final meal before forced departure across the Atlantic Ocean.
