ROBBEN ISLAND
isolation island
Since the end of the 17th century, Robben Island has been used to isolate people, mainly prisoners and amongst its first permanent inhabitants were political leaders from various Dutch colonies. From 1836 to 1931 the island was used as a leper colony and during the 2nd World War, the island was fortified and guns were installed as part of the defences for Cape Town. Robben Island became a maximum security prison in 1959. Between 1961 and 1991, over three thousand men were incarcerated there as political prisoners, including Nelson Mandela.
