National Heritage Monument

South Africa

The National Heritage Monument is a group of copper statues representing anti-apartheid activists, Zulu chiefs and missionaries in Groenkloof Nature Reserve, south of Pretoria, South Africa. The monument is meant to reflect the struggle for liberation going back to the 1600s. The project was started in 2010, but as of 2015, only has 55 statues. A total of 400 to 500 statues are planned. When complete, the monument will be called "The Long March to Freedom".
