The Old Fort on the Constitution Hill precinct in Johannesburg has undergone a visitor experience upgrade. The new exhibitions use technology and innovative design to showcase a pertinent part of SA’s history, telling the untold stories of the old prison block in Johannesburg CBD. Originally established to house the criminals produced by the rising mining town, the prison became the city’s first military fort after the Jameson Raid in 1896, when the British attempted to overthrow the Boer government.
