Museum of the People

Top choice in Port-au-Prince & Around


This small jumble of a museum attached to the mission is worth a stop on your way up to Kenscoff. There are taxidermied specimens of Haitian fauna (including a flamingo and a very sad owl), political propaganda from the Duvalier and Aristide eras and even some Taíno artifacts. Especially interesting is the exhibit of Vodou objects, which comes along with a disclaimer from your Baptist hosts. Leave your name in the guest log and a few gourdes.
