Learn about their horrors and the painful story of how each of them was murdered.
Continue the Tour with a visit to Uganda National Museum to have insight into the ethnological, natural-historical, and traditional life collections of the country’s heritage. Being the oldest Museum in the East African region, it was established in 1908.
