The iconic cathedral of Lome that was built in 1902 and where Pope John Paul II celebrated mass in 1985.
The Sacred Heart Cathedral is the cathedral of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Lomé, one of the seven Catholic church districts of Togo. Built in just over a year by the German colonial authorities, it quickly became one of the iconic buildings of the new capital of Togo.

African historical item museum
A small museum housing a quite large collection of authentic mainly West African historical items, such as masks (even from the 14th century), wooden chairs, funeral ceremonial items such as stretchers and chests and similar. A bit off the city centre, on the beach but worth a detour if you have the time. May have been renamed Musee International Art d'Afrique.
