Robert Sobukwe House

Robert angaliso Sobukwe's house on Robben Island where he was kept in solitary confinement."He spent six endless years of isolation on the same site, barred from even taking a walk on the tantalising beach close by. Unable to converse with loved ones on a daily basis, deprived of support and solidarity shared by other political prisoners on the Island. Robert Sobukwe endured six years of profound loneliness."
