My visit was so pleasant. I had no idea it was as huge as it is because from the outside it looks quite average. I came across so many historical events that I never thought had happened. It is an amazing and fitting place to bring people who are willing to learn about African history, from politics to entertainment. I thoroughly enjoyed and recommend you amazing people to visit. It's open Tuesdays - Sundays from 9:00 - 17:00 (except Good Friday).

Based in Newtown, on my last visit the Museum Africa was host to the South African Book Fair. The spacious interior has historic details which were carefully restored, and a spacious interior with easy viewing from the sloping ramp. Especially photography enthusiasts will enjoy the historic photographs lining the walls, as well as camera equipment from a previous era. Opposite the entrance,there is a large uncovered parking area, and at the back of the museum is the Market Theatre. Walking a bit further will take you to an adjacent small shopping mall with undercover parking.
