First German Colony In Africa Recalled As Relic Of Early Venture
More than two centuries have passed since Germany began Africa's west coast settlement at Cape Three Points near Cape Coast Castle. Benjamin Raule arranged a Guinea expedition for Brandenburg in 1681, leading to land grants and a treaty with locals. The German African Company formed in 1682, fort Gross Friederichsturg built in 1633, and a Berlin embassy visit featured a German ruler meeting with his negro wife. The Dutch retaliated, destroying plantations in 1688 and forcing the fort’s abandonment. a recovered gun now rests in Berlin’s Hall of Fame as Germany’s first African colonization relic.
