In honour of His Majesty King Goodwill Zwelithini kaBhekuzulu, the KwaZulu-Natal Museum management has taken a decision to close the Museum to members of the public on Thursday 18 March 2021.

King Zwelithini has shown exemplary leadership in the promotion of our heritage. He supported the KZN Museum in two important projects that helped to promote the profile of the KZN Museum while raising awareness about the rich heritage of KwaZulu-Natal.

King Zwelithini cared for the wellness and upliftment of the youth by developing and supporting projects that promoted employment opportunities for young people and the development of rural areas.

The KZN Museum pays tribute to the many achievements that the King made during his almost 50-year reign. As a national heritage institution, the KZN Museum will continue to develop and promote programmes and projects that raise awareness about our heritage and promote nation building and social cohesion.

Lala Uphumule Hlangalomhlabathi!
