The story behind the place

Alele Museum in Majuro preserves and shares Marshallese cultural history. The national tourism office highlights traditional fishing equipment, clothing, tools and historic photographs among the things visitors can learn about there. Its practical two-storey building is a reminder that important collections need not sit behind a monumental facade. The stories held inside connect everyday skills with the islands’ wider history.
