Iziko Slave Lodge
The former Slave Lodge now houses exhibitions on slavery and human rights. Permanent galleries place the history of Cape slavery inside a building connected to that past.
Why go
Exhibitions inside the former Slave Lodge examine Cape slavery and human rights in the building’s own historical setting. Give the permanent galleries time rather than stopping at the exterior. The building and the interpretation need to be experienced together; that pairing gives the visit its historical specificity and gravity.
