Albany Museum

In 1965, the 1820 Settlers Memorial Museum was funded and build by the Cape Provincial Administration. Today this building is known as the History Museum and is the second largest building in the Albany Museum family. It houses three art galleries, three cultural history galleries and the research and curatorial staff offices. Most of the exhibitions are of a didactic nature.

Albany Museum, located in Makhanda in the Eastern Cape Province, was established in 1855 and is the second oldest museum in South Africa. It is a provincial museum funded by the Eastern Cape Department of Sport Recreation Arts and Culture.
