Sights in Maun

  1. A

    Nhabe Museum

    The Nhabe Museum is housed in a historic building built by the British military in 1939, and used during WWII as a surveillance post against the German presence in Namibia.

    The museum offers a few displays about the history of the Ngamiland district and some temporary exhibitions of photography, basket-weaving and art. Donations are welcome. The museum also houses the Bailey Arts Centre, which allows local artists to produce and sell baskets, screen-printing, paintings and pottery, among other things.

    Maun Environmental Education Centre

    The Maun Environmental Education Centre located in the Maun Wildlife Reserve is on the eastern bank of the Thamalakane River, and aims to provide school children with an appreciation of nature. If you're in town with the little ones, it may be worth bringing them here for an hour or two.

  3. Crocodile Farm

    The community-run crocodile farm is basically all the encouragement you need to keep your hands and feet inside the mokoro (traditional dugout canoe) while cruising through the Okavango Delta.
