District Six Museum
This small museum is well worth a visit. It charts the history of District Six, a once-vibrant neighbourhood from where 60,000 residents were uprooted and their homes bulldozed during the apartheid era. The museum started as a community space for former residents, and tells their stories and of forced removals in general. Book a guided tour, conducted by an ex-resident, to hear stories first hand, and pop into the coffee shop for some delicious food.
