Gandhi Square

Gandhi Square
Gandhi's contribution to the struggle for liberation and justice has recently been acknowledged by the City of Johannesburg. The site of the city's first courthouse, formerly named Government Square and later Van der Byl Square was renamed in Gandhi's honour in 1999 and a statue erected to commemorate his role in shaping our country in 2003. While some of the square is still used as a bus terminus, banners and a series of information panels in the area tell the story of Gandhi's connection to the city.
