ConHill is a museum, & the site of the notorious Old Fort prison, Number 4 prison, Womens Gaol, & the home of the Constitutional Court of South Africa.
Nowhere can the story of South Africa's turbulent past and its extraordinary transition to democracy be told as it is at Constitution Hill.
Constitution Hill is a national heritage site situated in the Johannesburg CBD and is home to the Constitutional Court of South Africa– the highest court in the country on constitutional matters. Once a place of injustice and brutality, where South Africa’s leading political activists, including Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi, were detained, the site has been transformed into a place of solidarity and democracy, home to the Women’s Gaol museum, Number Four Museum, and Old Fort Museum. Apart from its engaging and gripping exhibitions, Constitution Hill is also open to the public for guided tours and has become an important platform for Heritage, Education, and Tourism related programmes.
The vast variety of programmes hosted at Constitution Hill enable us to embrace current issues, celebrate days of national significance, address matters of public interest and create a forum for public debate. With its rich history and character Constitution Hill boasts of ideal platforms to educate and learn about South Africa's story.
ConHill, as it is famously known, also offers a variety of multipurpose venues, suitable for conferencing, performances, a large array of events and for public activities and programmes.
