Housed in Emperor Haile Selassie’s former Guenete Leul Palace within Addis Ababa University, the Ethnological Museum is one of the finest museums in Africa. Its ticketed galleries explore the cultures, crafts, music and beliefs of Ethiopia’s many peoples, and preserve the emperor’s private apartments as they were. Set in the leafy university campus, it combines rich cultural displays with a tangible sense of the country’s imperial past, rewarding visitors with real depth and context.
