The National Archives of Ghana, reorganized as the Public Records and Archives Administration Department, is the official state institution that collects, preserves, and provides public access to the historical, legal, and administrative records of Ghana.
The National Museum offers visitors a look at Ghanaian history and culture from prehistory to the present. Cultural exhibits include clothing, thrones, carvings, pottery, and a variety of archaeological finds, all accompanied by concise and informative descriptions. There are also exhibits on traditional metalworking and cultural rites of passage. The focus on history is lesser, but the second floor includes displays of historical Ghanaian currencies, postage stamps, and football uniforms. A guided tour, which differs from the text in a few places, is available on request, but be sure to tip your guide at the end.
The park was created to honour Kwame Nkrumah, who led Ghana to its independence from Great Britain and became the nation's first president. Voted as Africa's "Man of the Millennium", he is a highly important figure of the 20th century. In the park you can see a monument dedicated to him, as well as his mausoleum, where he is buried.
Black Star Square
Also known as Black Star Square for the large black star located atop Independence Arch. The square celebrates Ghanaian independence from the British in 1957 and features an eternal flame first lit by Nkrumah in 1961.
Historic Anglican church of Accra built in 1894 that is on the way to Ussher Fort and James Fort.
This is kind of a diminutive mosque compared to some of the great ones out there, but may still be of interest. It is close to the Agbogbloshie borough though, so try not to get lost.
