Robben Island Museum

From the 17th to the 20th centuries, Robben Island served as a place of banishment, isolation and imprisonment. Today it is a World Heritage Site and museum, a poignant reminder to the newly democratic South Africa of the price paid for freedom.

Banished African Chiefs: Throughout the nineteenth century, numerous leaders of Xhosa, Khoi, Gcaleka in the Eastern Cape, the Korana in Northern Cape, and the Hlubi in Natal, were banished to the Island. They lived in traditional structures to the north of the bay, geographically separated from the village in the southeast.
