Overview
Abeokuta, nestled beneath the majestic Olumo Rock, is a haven of history and culture. Established in 1830 by Chief Sodeke as a refuge from slave hunters, its name means 'underneath the rock' or 'refuge among rocks.' Villagers from the surrounding areas sought sanctuary here, forming a unique confederacy of diverse groups, each preserving their customs, rites, and village names. Explore the caves and shrines that tell the story of this resilient community. #Abeokuta #OlumoRock #CulturalHeritage"
