The Ayetoro Digital Museum is a living archive dedicated to preserving and celebrating the unique cultural and architectural heritage of Ayetoro, a coastal community in Ondo State, Nigeria.

Founded through the support of the Gerda Henkel Stiftung (Patrimonies Programme) and implemented by the Green Institute, the museum emerged from an urgent need to safeguard the memory of a community increasingly threatened by climate change, coastal erosion, and sea-level rise.

Our mission is to document, preserve, and share Ayetoro’s stories, traditions, and built heritage using digital tools that ensure access for generations to come. Through photographs, oral histories, community narratives, and cultural artefacts, we connect the past with the present while inspiring resilience for the future.
