Heritage

Soak in the unique African history and heritage in the many museums in the city.

The many riveting stories this city has to tell are amongst the most profound in the world.

There are museums devoted to apartheid and the heroes who fought against it; to gold, military and Boer history

Take a tour of human ancestry at the Cradle of Human Kind.

Constitution Hill is the site of the notorious Old Fort Prison Complex, where many of South Africa’s leading political activists, including Mahatma Gandhi, Joe Slovo and Nelson Mandela, were detained.

Most of the original buildings are preserved and restored for their heritage value and look as they did when this was a working prison.

The Apartheid Museum - illustrates the rise and fall of apartheid. It is a beacon of hope showing the world how South Africa is coming to terms with its oppressive past and working towards a future that all South Africans can call their own.

"No one truly knows a nation until one has been inside its jails."
Nelson Mandela
Long Walk to Freedom
