.The Pan African Historic Museum (PAHMUSA) is one of the city’s most precious treasures for preservation of the Africa to America historical linkage in the Western Massachusetts area.
Since 1995, the founders of PAHMUSA have been bringing African and American culture and history alive for area students as well as the general public in their museum spaces on the 2nd floor of Tower Square in downtown Springfield, MA.
The museum houses numerous artifacts depicting the evolution of the black history from the Golden Age of the magnificent empires of Ghana, Mali and Songhai to the Underground Railroad, W.E.B. Dubois and the civil rights.
Beginning in April, PAHMUSA hosts a public tour of the Underground Railroad routes that starts at the river front and continues to the Old First Church in court square and throughout the streets of downtown Springfield.
Special presentations, of the Underground Railroad experience, take place at the Springfield Armory.
