The slave market and the Anglican church of Zanzibar
A place of memory full of history. We discover the frightening conditions reserved for the slaves before their sales. They waited for their fate to be decided, cloistered in a few meters without air or light. Piled up together in such a small space and in deplorable conditions, they had to wait for the tide so that the excrement on the floor could be washed. It was not uncommon for many of these human beings to die of suffocation or exhaustion. Outside the slave market, a memorial was created by the artist Clara Sörnäs. The statues are surrounded by the real irons that chained the slaves. The church, meanwhile, has the distinction of being architecturally influenced by Gothic and Arab art.
