A poignant tribute to one of the Soweto Uprising’s youngest victims, the Hector Pieterson Museum powerfully narrates South Africa’s struggle for freedom through captivating multimedia exhibits and historical displays.

Located in Orlando, Soweto, the museum immerses visitors in the raw emotional impact of the 1976 youth-led protests that galvanised the anti-apartheid movement globally.

Visitors walk through interactive installations telling stories of courage, sacrifice, and resilience, gaining an in-depth understanding of the violence and hope that shaped modern South Africa.

Through educational programs and community engagement, the museum strives to inspire reflection and ongoing dialogue about social justice.
