Keta Municipal Parks and Gardens

Keta Municipal Parks and Gardens is a public green space in Keta, in the Keta Municipality of the Volta Region, Ghana. It is listed at 131 Ketasco Street. The site is unusual in that it serves two purposes at once: it is the local office of the Department of Parks and Gardens under the Keta Municipal Assembly, and it also functions as a public recreational park and cultural landmark.

For a visitor, the main point of interest is a memorial statue of the late former President Jerry John Rawlings, unveiled and dedicated at the Keta Parks and Gardens in honour of the first President of Ghana's Fourth Republic. The statue was erected in the Dzelukofe/Dzelukope area of the Keta Municipality, his maternal hometown. Local media have described the park as an iconic tourist park in Ghana and a scenic attraction in Keta.

The setting is a municipal, government-run site rather than a commercial attraction. The park is described as a tranquil green space used for relaxation, leisurely strolls and picnics, which suggests a low-key visit rather than a programmed one. Because it is also a working department office, visitors should expect an ordinary civic environment alongside the open space.

Practical planning information is limited. Opening hours, entrance fees, contact details, accessibility arrangements and on-site amenities are not published by the operator or by any reliable source located, so none can be stated here. The operator is the Keta Municipal Assembly, whose Department of Parks and Gardens runs the site; the Assembly maintains an official website at ketama.gov.gh and lists contact details of [email protected] and +233205636260 for the municipality. Visitors needing confirmed hours or access arrangements would be best advised to check with the Assembly directly before travelling. No verified coordinates are available for the site, so it should be located by its street address.
