Groot Drakenstein Prison

Nelson Mandela spent the last 14 months of his lengthy political imprisonment at Drakenstein Prison, formerly known as Victor Verster. Mandela described the prison as a "gilded cage," where he was confined to luxurious quarters rather than a cell. He had access to multiple bedrooms, a swimming pool, personal chef, and views of the breathtaking Drakenstein Mountains, but remained imprisoned despite the comfortable conditions. This period at Drakenstein marked the end of Mandela's incarceration, before he finally emerged as a free man in February 1990 after decades of struggle.
