This small private museum in Badagry preserves shackles, chains, and other implements used during the transatlantic slave trade, kept by the Mobee family whose ancestors were involved in the commerce. The rusted iron restraints and neck collars offer a visceral reminder of the human cost of the trade that passed through this coastal town. Guides recount the routes by which captives were marched to the shore and shipped across the Atlantic. It forms part of a heritage trail confronting one of history's gravest chapters.
