CHOMA MUSEUM

Museums

This museum dedicated to the culture of the Tonga people is housed in one of the country's few surviving buildings from the colonial era, a former school from the 1920s. The museum traces the history of the ethnic group, whose most significant event was its sad displacement during the construction of the Kariba Dam, and exhibits many objects emblematic of Tonga traditions: musical instruments, spears, jewelry, statuettes, baskets, objects of daily life ... There is also contemporary art and a small store of crafts.
