Nazery AME Church National Historic Site & North American Black Historical Museum, Amherstburg

View Hi Resolution Version

This Museum, which opened in 1975, was founded by Mr. Melvin Simpson to promote the community's pride in their heritage. It chronicles the achievements of black North Americans, starting with their culture in Africa, moving through the years of slavery and continuing on to present day achievements. The Church, built by former slaves and free Blacks, was restored and reopened in 2001 and has been designated a National Historic Site.
