Well worth visiting with one of their guides (ZAR 55 in total) to get a real understanding of the evil that was apartheid . The guides are former residents (before they were kicked out in 1966).

Photos, objects and testimonials from former District 6 residents before it was ruthlessly cleared for whites only. Great example of why everyone should be deeply suspicious of divide & rule politics.

Essential: take a guided tour . The guides are former residents of District Six and in order to really understand what happened here you need to hear the history from them.

The guided tour is a must, as the museum is very confusing unless you have background knowledge of the events that occurred and South Africa 's history.

The museum is dedicated to the historic District Six area of Cape Town and houses a vast collection of historical materials relating to this demolished area of Cape Town.

Excellent museum but definitely get a guide to navigate it. Tons of artifacts explain the culture of District Six's past and former residents have a seat at the drafting board of its future.

Very interesting museum . A must visit when in CT. Make sure to pay an extra R15 for the guided tour .

Very very good. Be sure to get a guide. We had a guy call Noor who was fascinating !

A great way to learn more about apartheid and the destruction of District Six. Plan to spend 1-1.5 hours here.
