Introduction
This hill overlooking Johannesburg is the location of South Africa’s highest court and site of the Old Fort Prison Complex. Today it is also a celebration of freedom. Both Gandhi and Mandela were incarcerated at the jail as were many famous and infamous criminals and freedom fighters. Today, you can tour the former detention center that has been resurrected as a museum in honor of the very individuals once imprisoned here.

Constitution Hill is a well-known political common sense. This is not a mountain, but a museum. It contains a lot of figures about the South African liberation movement. You can learn about the black liberation movement here.
A fantastic part of your trip to South Africa. Explore the rich and integral part of South African history as you gain a real life experience of what South Africa was like in the past and where the journey has lead this far.
interesting exhibits. a good introduction for the apartheid era in South Africa before you move to something more hard hitting. it is also outside so on. nice day it’s good
one of the most iconic apartheid-era building with prisons. beautiful and clean area.
Constitution Hill was, to me, one of the best surprises on our trip to South Africa. While it’s not as dazzling and eye-catching as some of the Johannesburg attraction, we nonetheless had a moving and powerful guided tour here. Our guide – Robin – was quite the storyteller, highlighting the disturbing history and barbaric aspects of the court. I highly suggest that you take a guide, especially since you’ll need someone who can explain in detail about the buildings, their significance as well as their history.
interesting!!
