Cape Coast Castle is one of approximately forty fortresses built along the Gold Coast of West Africa by Europeans. Originally built by the Swedes for trading for timber and gold, the fort passed into the hands of the Dutch, followed by the British during which time the fort became infamously associated with the emergent slave trade. Today it serves as a stark reminder of that tragic period in history.
