Alexandra Heritage Centre

The Alex Heritage Centre is a testament to the rich history of Alexandra and the enduring struggle for freedom. It houses a museum that serves as a vital archive of Alexandra’s past, preserving its stories and milestones. At the heart of the centre stands the exhibition hall, a striking architectural feature that spans the street, symbolically bridging history and progress. At ground level, two dynamic new spaces have been created, lined with public facilities and shops that foster community engagement. The design of the building beautifully reflects the duality of Alexandra’s township aesthetic -seemingly spontaneous yet intricately structured – celebrating the unique blend of vibrancy and thoughtful spatial organisation.
