The National Museum of Liberia is restored reversing the effect of many years of destruction and neglect. It is housed in one of Monrovia’s oldest buildings, erected in 1843, four years before Liberia’s Declaration of Independence. This example of typical mid-19th century Liberian settler architecture, was originally designed to house the colony’s first Court House.

The three floors of exhibitions collectively entitled WAVES OF TIME explore the ebb and flow of Liberia’s history, cultures, peoples and artistic expressions. The exhibitions inform and enlighten visitors through the use of rare and contemporary artifacts, documents, photographs, archival videos, art works, sculptures and installations of a traditional hut and a country kitchen. Stories about and images of Liberia’s 16 ethnic groups as well as the establishment of Americo-Liberian communities are followed by the history of the Republic of Liberia and its quest for unity, peace and prosperity. Finally, art works by talented, contemporary Liberian artists interpret artistically the country and its peoples' past, present and future. The museum officially opens to the general public on November 29th 2017.
We look forward to your visit.
