The Adwa Zero KM Museum, located a stone's throw away from the Mayor's office, is slated to open this week after four years of construction. A 45,000 sqm behemoth built in commemoration of Ethiopia's historic battle and successful defence of its borders against invading forces 127 years ago, the project had a cost of around 4.6 billion Br. The project is made of 11 blocks with auditoriums that can house 4,000 people at a time, galleries, gyms and art installations and a connecting bridge to city hall located across the street.
