Lesotho’s oldest and best-known museum is the Morija Museum and Archives (MMA), which stands in the historic town of Morija about an hour’s drive south of the capital Maseru.
Established in 1956, the MMA hosts an impressive collection of ethnographic, geological and fossil material relating to Lesotho’s cultural and natural heritage, much of it collected by missionaries in the late 19th century. It also incorporates the kingdom’s most important historical archive.
The Royal Archives, Museum and Information Resource Centre can be found in the royal capital Matsieng, only 7km from Morija.
The Masitise Cave House Museum near Quthing is converted from a three-room house built into a deep rock overhang in 1866 by the French missionary DF Ellenberger.
