Memorial in Cape Town, South Africa
District Six Museum is a museum in the former inner-city residential area known as District Six, in Cape Town, South Africa housed in an old Methodist church. The floor of the museum is covered with a big map of the district with hand written notes of former inhabitants, which indicate where their houses were located. One former resident is jazz musician, Abdullah Ibrahim, better known by the name Dollar Brand. Other pieces in the museum are old traffic signs, exhibits of historical moments and lives of families from the area, historical declarations, and exhibits about the demolition.
