Gwollu Slave Defense Wall

Humans have a built-in survival instinct. The Gwollu slave defensive wall is one of Ghana's historic places that exemplifies how far humanity can go to survive. Gwollu is a tiny town in the Upper West Region's Sissala West district.


The Gwollu wall was built in the nineteenth century. It was created by Gwollu Koro Limann with the primary goal of protecting the population against slave raids. Environmental causes have destroyed the majority of these walls. The only surviving wall is in Gwollu, a border town. Other notable tourist attractions in Gwollu include a traditional bone-setting clinic and a crocodile pond. Hilla Limann (1979-1981), the former president, is also buried here.
