Langa is one of the oldest townships in South Africa. The original settlement developed in 1927 after the first wave of the Spanish Flu in the Cape highlighted the appalling conditions in which Black people were living rough near the highway. Langa was the epicenter of resistance during the turbulent apartheid years and many key political events in the Cape played out from the impoverished township.
Bonteheuwel, a Colored is located next to Langa. This neighborhood was set up to house people being forcibly removed from District 6 and Claremont under the 1949-1960 Group Areas Act. Communities were housed in simple ‘matchbox’ houses with a tin roof.
