trade in timber and gold. It was later used in the trans-Atlantic slave
trade.[1] Other Ghanaian slave castles include Elmina Castle and Fort Christiansburg.
They were used to hold enslaved Africans before they were loaded onto ships and
sold in the Americas, especially the Caribbean. This “gate of no return” was the last
stop before crossing the Atlantic Ocean.[2] Cape Coast Castle, along with other forts
and castles in Ghana, are included on the UNESCO World Heritage List because of
