The Langa Heritage Museum was today opened by the Cape Town mayor Patricia de Lille.

Before it became a museum it was an old pass court building and a post office.

Now it has been fixed and now houses local history pieces.

The Old Pass Court reportedly processed 60 migrant workers in one hour and was the gateway into the city for black migrant labourers.

The Langa Heritage Foundation’s Temba Nolutshungu said the museum must be more than a cultural space, but a teaching centre for the youth.
