Lwandle Migrant Labour Museum

Museum

Museum on migrant labour system in Western Cape, South Africa

Lwandle Migrant Labour Museum - is 40 kilometres outside the city of Cape Town, just off the N2, in the region known as the Helderberg Basin. Lwandle was once inhabited by hunter-gatherer groups who secured their food from the nearby seashore. During the colonial era, after many battles, the area became a cattle post and was subdivided into farms in the early eighteenth century. It is the first township-based museum and has garnered two awards in the last twelve years.
