House of Slaves, Slave museum in Senegal
The House of Slaves is a museum and memorial located on Gorée Island, off the coast of Dakar, Senegal.
Built by the Dutch in 1776, it served as the final exit point for slaves from Africa.
It stands as a testament to the Atlantic Slave Trade and is a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Visitors can tour the house, including the 'Door of No Return', which symbolizes the final exit point of the slaves.
Despite its historical significance, there is ongoing debate about the actual number of slaves who passed through the House of Slaves.
