Benin
🎧 Listen to Introduction
From 1625 to 1900, 12 kings successively ruled the powerful Kingdom of Abomey. With the exception of King Akaba, who had his own independent palace, the palaces of the other kings were built within the same earthen wall area, consistent with the previous palaces in terms of space and use of materials. The Royal Palace of Abomey is a unique relic of this lost kingdom.
