Musee Cercle Africain, Pointe Noire

Cercle Africain Museum houses traditional mask predominately and also old pictures of parts of of the Country at various stages of development, with particular emphasis on the oil and gas industry. There is a gallery of contemporary art too. Its quite a short affair to go through it, hoping it gets enlarged in the future and more historical artifacts get included. The Museum is close to the police station and the city's biggest market.

The museum houses nice collection of masks but doesn't give a lot of information. You can also observe modern paintings and a set of historical photos of Pointe Noire dated back to 1920s. It won't take you a lot of time to visit the museum. It also has suvenire cups and t-shirts.
