Pompey Museum of Slavery and Emancipation
The Pompey Museum in Nassau’s former Vendue House addresses slavery, resistance and emancipation. Pair it with the nearby port streets to understand more than the city’s familiar pirate story.
This small museum adds essential human history to a walk through Nassau’s trading centre. Its subject changes how the surrounding square and market streets read. Give the exhibits attention before returning to the waterfront and other downtown sights around Pompey Square.
