She ran aground just outside Port Elizabeth on 30th June 1647 in bad weather and just in few minutes she hit the rocky coastline and got badly damaged. The Shipwreck of Sacramento has many dramatic parts and inspiring story's, one of which is the march of the 72 survivors up the coast towards a port in Mozambique, from where they hoped to be sent back to Portugal. They stayed on the beach near the Shipwreck for 11 days and then began their journey to Mozambique. During their journey, almost everyone met their fate in the hands of death, From 72 survivors only 9 of them made it to tell the tail. The many cannons of Sacramento lay undisturbed on the ocean bed for 330 years until most of them were salvaged in 1977. One brass cannon was submerged under the sea sands and was brought up i...

It's Ironic that a museum documenting the fight against apartheid is the former building where apartheid laws used to be enforced. On aproching KwaMuhle museum you would immediately get struck by large copper covered emblem at the entrance door. The museum reflects Durban's urban growth and history of its residents from a large range of perspectives. KwaMuhle Museum shows what life was like in and around Durban during the apartheid era and contributions of ordinary people who laid the foundation of what Durban is today. The museum includes newspaper prints, statues, paintings, books, and pictures. Some of the pictures and newspaper articles are taken from well known South African politicians and human rights activist. I must say some Slogans, articles, and depectation are very heart touching. If you are sensitive I'm pretty sure, you would end up crying to know about all the horrible atrocities African people had to go through. I urge you to go to kwaMuhle Museum it'...
