Nobel Square, Memorial square at V&A Waterfront, Cape Town, South Africa.
The square contains five bronze statues on granite surfaces, arranged in a semicircle facing away from Table Mountain.
Inaugurated in 2005, Nobel Square commemorates South African Nobel Peace Prize recipients Nelson Mandela, FW de Klerk, Desmond Tutu, and Albert Lutuli.
Bronze sculptures by Claudette Schreuders represent each laureate, while Noria Mabasa created the fifth statue depicting women in anti-apartheid movements.
The square occupies 386 square meters near shops and restaurants, with inscribed quotes on the ground in front of each statue.
Four bronze figures stand permanently together, representing different aspects of South Africa's journey toward democracy and reconciliation.
