Damara Living Museum

An open-air cultural museum run by the Damara community, demonstrating traditional fire-making, medicine, jewelry, singing and dancing, and hunting skills.

Located near the Twyfelfontein junction, Damara people in traditional dress demonstrate pre-colonial ways of life, and the proceeds go directly to the community. Options range from short guided tours to packages that include singing, dancing and hunting walks, costing roughly N$100 to N$300. It is open daily from about 08:00 to 17:00. Photography is allowed, and buying handicrafts is a good way to support the community.
