The museum's rare exhibits come from Central Africa, home to the Hamite and Bantu peoples, from southern Africa and Madagascar. Some objects date back to the 19th century. The museum focuses on masks and fetishes that are worshipped by some indigenous peoples in Africa, as they are believed to have supernatural powers. In addition to cult objects, taxidermied animals and objects of everyday use, African art objects and contemporary works of art are also on display.
