Robben Island Museum

Learn about South Africa's past and the struggle against Apartheid

Robben Island Museum is located in Cape Town, South Africa, and serves as a symbol of triumph over adversity. Nelson Mandela served 18 years in prison here before his walk to freedom, and many people come to see his cell. It's known for the ex-prisoners who now work as tour guides around the island. The standard tour to Robben Island is about 4 hours long with two half-hour ferry trips.
