Church Square (Cape Town)

Church Square in Cape Town, South Africa, lies in front of the Groote Kerk at the intersection of Parliament and Spin Streets.

[1] A plaque on a traffic island on Spin Street commemorates the slave market once using the square.

A building south of the square housed the old slave quarters and later was home to the High Court.

Today, it houses a cultural and historical museum.
