Chancellor House

Directly opposite the Magistrates' Courts in the inner-city CBD stands Chancellor House, the modest building where Nelson Mandela and Oliver Tambo ran Mandela and Tambo, the country's first Black law firm, in the 1950s. Restored as a heritage site and street-level museum, its ground-floor windows double as display cases so passers-by can read the photographs and stories of the firm's defiant work even when the building is closed.

Outside stands the striking Shadow Boxer sculpture of Mandela. Small, free and poignant, it is a five-minute stop packed with history on the 702 Jozi My Jozi Walk the Talk route.
