The Apartheid Museum is one of the must visit places in South Africa because it holds an important position in this land’s history. It uses a clever combination of media to bring to life a chilling account of South Africa’s rise and fall over the period of segregation and repression.
This museum is a monument like Aushwitz and Dachau. While depressing to visit, it provides unique insights into the harm that mankind has inflicted on one another and teaches us many lessons for posterity. Do make it a point to go to the 131-noose chamber and pay respects to the 131 men who were executed here by these very nooses, under antiterrorism laws. Make sure that you’ve included this in your list of places to visit in South Africa for its historical significance.
