Cape Town: Iziko Museums of South Africa has reopened four museums!

Iziko Museums of South Africa has reopened four museums in Cape Town to the public today (17 September 2020) after six month of closure due to the coronavirus pandemic. The Iziko South African Museum, the Iziko South African National Gallery, the Iziko Slave Lodge and the Iziko Bo-Kaap Museum have reopened to the public, and are running under new operating hours. The museums are open from 10:00 to 14:00 from Tuesdays to Sundays. There will be two entry sessions – from 10:00 until 11:30, and 12:00 until 14:00; visitors are asked to arrive fifteen minutes before the sessions begin, so that staff of Iziko Museums can swiftly screen the visitors before entering. This includes taking temperature, receiving contact details and accepting payment. Entry will not be permitted without a mask.
Iziko Museums of South Africa operates 11 national museums in Cape Town as well as collection-specific libraries, a world-class Social History Archive and the most advanced digital Planetarium and Digital Dome on the African Continent.
