The Benin City Pilgrimage Stations tells the individual stories of fourteen iconic Benin City landmarks. With regard to their age, these landmarks range from about 150 years old to about 750 years old. They are all located within the inner city of Benin City in Edo State, Nigeria.
A newly titled citizen has to ceremonially visit these landmarks sequentially, in procession and in full regalia. The course of this ceremony serves to validate the title conferred to him by the monarch of the kingdom, the Oba of Benin.
