Nhabe Museum, located in Maun, Botswana, was established in 1996 to preserve and promote the cultural and natural heritage of the Ngamiland region. Housed in a historic building constructed by the British military in 1939, the museum showcases exhibitions on the history, crafts, fine art, and natural history of the Okavango Delta. It features items like Bayei fishing nets, basket weaving, photography, and poetry. The museum also supports local artists through the Bailey Arts Centre, where visitors can purchase locally-made crafts such as baskets, paintings, and pottery.

though the place is small, tumero, the docent, does an excellent explanation of local culture and tradition through the artefacts displayed.

This is a small, well curated museum and I recommend a visit if you are in Maun. They have a craft shop with excellent quality woven plates/bowls/trivets and an on site artist who carves wood and makes recycled paper products. We had a staff member show us through the exhibits and explain many things which was a bonus. It is free to enter but you can make donations in a box.
