Why go
Constitution Hill makes the shift from repression to constitutional democracy tangible through buildings with very different purposes. The Old Fort, Number Four and Women’s Jail preserve difficult histories, while the court gives the precinct a continuing public role. Choose the operator’s shorter or fuller tour according to your time and appetite for an emotionally demanding visit.
What to look for
- Former prison buildings and their exhibitions
- The Constitutional Court precinct
Useful to know
- Choose between the one-hour highlights and two-hour full tour.
