'''Osun-Osogbo''' or '''Osun-Osogbo Sacred Grove''' is a sacred forest along the banks of the [[Oshun River]] just outside the city of [[Osogbo]], [[Osun State]], [[Nigeria]].<br />
<br />
The Osun-Osogbo Grove is among the last of the sacred forests which usually adjoin the edges of most [[Yoruba people|Yoruba]] cities before extensive urbanization.<br />
Osun-Osgogbo festival is celebrated every year. Osun- worshipers come from all walks of life to celebrate this day.<br />
<br />
In recognition of its global significance and its cultural value, the Sacred Grove was inscribed as a [[UNESCO World Heritage Site]] in [[2005]].<br />
