The National Museum of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MNRDC) is located at 4422, Boulevard Triomphal, in the commune of Lingwala in Kinshasa, next to the Protestant Cathedral of the Centenary.
The building was constructed with funding from the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) and officially handed over to the Congolese government on June 14, 2019, after three years of construction. It represents one of South Korea's most significant cultural investments in Central Africa.
The museum is dedicated to preserving, transmitting, and promoting Congolese cultural heritage. It has a capacity of 12,000 objects drawn from the country's ethnic diversity and different historical periods.
It is an essential stop for anyone who wants to understand the history and cultures of the DRC during a stay in Kinshasa.
