This cultural centre on Lagos Island celebrates the heritage of the Yoruba people through immersive exhibitions, multimedia displays, and interpretive galleries. Named after a pioneering Lagosian physician and philanthropist, it explores Yoruba cosmology, language, music, art, and diaspora connections across the Atlantic. The contemporary building incorporates an outdoor pool and terraces over the district. Opened in the 2020s, it has become a flagship institution for cultural tourism in Lagos, with interactive rooms engaging all ages.
