The sale and confinement of slaves took place here for three centuries.
Here they were locked up separately into men, women and children, and sold like cattle.
There were about 3 million slaves sold and people who died from various causes here.
Here is a prisoner's ball on a chain in a box that weighed about 6 kg, which made life harder and they would drown if thrown into the sea.
