National Museum of Anthropology

Founded on November 13, 1976, the National Museum of Anthropology was the first museum institution created after Angola's independence a year earlier.
This scientific, cultural and educational institution is dedicated to the collection, research, conservation, valorization and dissemination of Angolan cultural heritage.
The National Museum of Anthropology is made up of 14 rooms spread over two floors that house traditional pieces, namely agricultural, hunting and fishing utensils, iron casting, musical instruments, jewelry, pieces of cloth made from tree bark and photographs of the Khoisan people.
Anyone who enjoys music has the opportunity to learn about the various traditional instruments and listen to a demonstration of the use of the marimba. The museum's main attraction is the mask room, which presents symbols of the rituals of the Bantu people.
