Located in Moroni, the bustling capital of Grande Comore, the National Museum of Comoros offers a profound glimpse into the nation's rich cultural and historical landscape. Since its opening in 1989, the museum has attracted both local and international visitors, showcasing an extensive collection that spans four distinct exhibit rooms. The first room delves into the island's past with historical artifacts, religious symbols, and archeological finds, while the second room highlights the geological features of Comoros, focusing on its volcanic and seismic activity. The third exhibit emphasizes oceanography and the natural sciences, celebrating the island's marine biodiversity. Finally, the fourth room explores social and cultural anthropology, providing insights into the traditions and customs that shape Comorian life. As part of the National Center of Documentation and Scientific Research, the museum also connects with regional museums on Anjouan and Mohéli, creating a cohesive network for cultural preservation and education.
It looked old and not well visited like many museums do around this parts. But I didn’t get a chance to do a tour of it just went to the bookshop and walked through the compound to get some historic and cultural books. The entrance is around the side not the one opposite the banks

C'est in endroit de connaissance. Il n'y a pas mieux que là bas pour apprendre l'histoire des Comores.
Ils ont conservé plusieurs collections de la tradition Comorien.
They have got OVK there knows as Karthala volcanic observatory.
They follow online the alive magma movement ( activities) do that they can be able to inform people from Ngazidja island any possible volcanic eruption.
I got a training of 7 months in that place, I will advise all Comorian relatives to drop over there time to time with their children to make them learn Comoros'root.

In a very poor state. Most articles displayed and not cared for. The place was quite dirty when we arrived. There was no one to guide and provide information about the displays, most of which were described in French.
