An Unedited Story of South Africa

Welcome to The Cape Heritage Museum  

The Cape Heritage Museum at The Cape of Good Hope Castle is proud to be a diverse and inclusive museum. It is an unedited story of South Africa. It is home to all people who made the Cape their home, the Khoi, the San, the Dutch, the British, the Malays, the Jews, the Indians, the Xhosas, the French, the Arabs and many others. It is a space to share and celebrate stories of cultural connections and provides evidence that we have more in common than we know. Your own story will become clear and/or more intense after a visit to The Cape Heritage Museum located at the oldest building in South Africa.

Carla - Cape Town

Ons het meer van dit nodig. Dit het my tuis laat voel as ook emosioneel. Ons kinders moet die geskiedenis weet. Wel gedaan!!
