Nowhere can the story of South Africa's turbulent past and its extraordinary transition to democracy be told as it is at Constitution Hill. This National Heritage site has witnessed over a century of South Africa's history. From soldiers who fought in the Anglo Boer war at the turn of the century, political prisoners, and resistors to the repressive apartheid regime, the youth caught up in the Soweto Uprising, to the dawn of democracy, Constitution Hill has witnessed it all.
The site was injected with a new meaning and energy when it was chosen in the mid 1990s as the site for the new Constitutional Court. Today Constitution Hill is a city precinct managed by Blue IQ and JDA and anchored by the South African Constitutional Court, the highest court in the country on constitutional matters.
