Museo Africano (African Museum)
Calle De Madrid 101About
You can get a glimpse of what life is like in Sub-Saharan African countries such as Zaire, Ethiopia, Uganda, Sudan and Cameroon through this museum's displays of everyday objects, including clothing, jewellery, musical instruments, wooden and ivory carvings, masks, weapons, charms and tools. The objects were collected over the years by missionaries led by Daniel Comboni, who was beatified in 1996. Documentary evidence like political and economical statistics, maps, photographs and scale-models are also exhibited in order to put the the collected objects in context. Admission: free (guided visit included)
