UNESCO World Heritage

Over a period of more than seven decades, the courtyard of Aapravasi Ghat was used by indentured immigrants as a place of rest and acclimatization during their 2 to 3-day stay. It was surrounded by sheds, and also by a kitchen and the sirdars’ quarters, which no longer exist.
