Interesting location, lots of military memorabilia with emphasis on Ghanian involvement in WWI & WWII and the guides are very good. Well worth a visit if you are in Kumasi.

We had an excellent tour guide (local college student) who took us on a quick hour tour of this historic structure and it's very interesting collection of war memorabilia taken from many other countries in various wars. Definitely worth a visit.
