The Apartheid Museum
South Africa's history of black oppression is chronicled in this
building, situated near Gold Reef City. Relics of the Apartheid
system, which banned non-whites from certain areas and from
receiving an education, as well as forbidding interracial
relationships, can be found here, right down to a bench marked for
'Whites Only'. Visitors often describe the experience of the
Apartheid Museum as 'heart wrenching', but at the same time find
the story of the struggle over adversity inspirational.
