The Castle of Good Hope is a historical fortification in Cape Town, South Africa. Built in the 17th century, the Castle witnessed many untold evils, especially against the enslaved people. The Castle was once a place of atrocities, torture, and injustice, where enslaved people were treated inhumanely. However, today, the Castle of Good Hope symbolizes hope and reconciliation, reminding us of the importance of acknowledging the dark history of slavery and colonialism.
