The Hector Pieterson Museum is a large museum located in Orlando West, Soweto, South Africa, two blocks away from where Hector Pieterson was shot and killed. The museum is named in his honor. It became the first museum in Soweto when it opened in 16 June 2002. The total cost of the project was Rand 23.2 million. The museum covers the events leading up to, and during, the anti-Afrikaans Soweto Uprising.
