Renowned the world over as a UNESCO World Heritage site, Robben Island lies about seven kilometres off the coast of Cape Town. The island is famous for holding Nobel Laureate Nelson Mandela and many other pioneers of South African racial struggle as prisoners. It is now turned into a museum which is owned by the state.
