Hector Pieterson Memorial reviews
Interesting smaller museum about the young boy who was shot during the Soweto school uprising. Very moving story. The museum itself can be seen within 30 minutes or so. Note there are 'guides' outside the museum who will tell you about the events and ask for a tip.
It tells a great Historical stories. The meaning of June 16 in South Africa and why they started the Soweto uprising strike. Thank you to our Heroes/Heroin who fought for our nation.
This place gives you more insight about the soweto uprisings, you get to experience the turmoil that occurred in Soweto. There are pictures and videos that were taken as the events were happening. …
