Elmina
Fort Conraadsburg, also known as Conraadsburg Castle, is a historic fort located in Elmina, Ghana. Constructed by the Dutch in the 17th century, it played a significant role in the transatlantic slave trade and served as a trading post and military stronghold. While the fort has been partially destroyed over time, its ruins stand as a powerful reminder of Ghana's colonial past and the atrocities of the slave trade.
