Route 67

A public art trail commemorating Mandela's 67 years of service, with 67 artworks lining steps from the old town up to Donkin Reserve.

Route 67 was created to honour the 67 years Nelson Mandela devoted to the struggle for freedom in South Africa. Sixty-seven public artworks by local artists stretch along the steps and streets around the City Hall and clock tower, all the way up to Donkin Reserve. They include mosaic steps, lighthouse installations, brick walls with text and large sculptures of figures. Allow about an hour to walk and see everything. The route can be combined with Donkin Reserve, No 7 Castle Hill and the historic buildings of the central district for an old-town walk. Entry is free, and daytime visits in a group are recommended.
