From outside, the fortress has a nice look, but once inside its history dawns on you.
From outside, the fortress has a nice, white look and you almost are tempted to believe you are entering a very pictoresque place. Until you study its history. Here, African men and women were assembled by force from the inlands of the West African coast, before being shipped to plantations in the Americas. People were squeezed into too small rooms, where they had to wait too long before boarding one of the ships waiting outside. In the fortress, maps of the ships can be seen where the most economical way is drawn to put as many people as possible inside the ships.
