The Apartheid Museum opened in 2001 and is acknowledged as the pre-eminent museum in the
world dealing with 20th century South Africa, at the heart of which is the apartheid story.
Beginning in 1948, the white elected National Party government implemented the policy of apartheid
which turned 20 million people into second class citizens, damning them to a life of servitude,
humiliation and abuse. Their liberation in 1994, with the election of Nelson Mandela, the prisoner who
became president, is a climax in the saga of a nation’s resistance, courage and fortitude. The
Apartheid museum, the first of its kind, illustrates the rise and fall of the apartheid.
The exhibits have been assembled and organized by a multi-disciplinary team of curators, filmmakers,
historians and designers. They include provocative film footage, photographs, text panels and
artefacts illustrating the events and human stories that are part of the epic saga, known as apartheid.
A series of 22 individual exhibition areas takes the visitor through a dramatic emotional journey that
tells a sad story of a state-sanctioned system based on racial discrimination and the struggle of the
majority to overthrow this tyranny.
For anyone wanting to understand and experience what apartheid South Africa was really like, a visit
to the Apartheid museum is fundamental.
The museum 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.
It is not uncommon that visitors find the three hours inside the museum too short. We
understand that, therefore our tour guides will try to adjust the schedule to your liking.
