The first ever Museum dedicated to the world music legend Freddie Mercury, has been opened on the island of Zanzibar and is located in Shangani in the heart of Zanzibar Stone Town.
The new tourism facility was officially inaugurated yesterday, Sunday the 24th of November 2019, in order to commemorate the 28th anniversary of the passing of the beloved rock music legend Freddie Mercury.
The Freddie Mercury Museum is officially partnered with Queen Productions Ltd. in the United Kingdom, who have loaned an exclusive picture gallery of Freddie Mercury throughout different stages in his life and musical career.
This project aims to showcase a detailed accord of the birth town of Farrokh Bulsara, his roots with the Zoroastrian religion, his childhood and upbringing in Zanzibar, followed by his schooling in Panchgani, India, and then the rest of his journey to becoming one of the greatest stars of all time.
Andrea Boero then added: “This concept which we have had for many years has finally become a reality. A project that we and our future generations can cherish. We have been dedicated to this museum, trying to accumulate a lot of material, witnesses from people who were a part of his life in order to make this a solid tribute.”
The museum is open daily from 10 am to 6 pm. For more information contact them at info
