Red Location Museum, Historical museum in New Brighton, Port Elizabeth, South Africa.
The Red Location Museum features twelve substantial corrugated iron memory boxes, each measuring six meters wide and twelve meters high, containing historical exhibits.
The museum stands on the site of a former Boer concentration camp that later became one of Port Elizabeth's first black townships in 1900.
The exhibition spaces present multiple perspectives of South Africa's liberation struggle through photographs, artifacts, and personal narratives from township residents.
The facility includes an auditorium for 120 people, a conference room for 180 attendees, and a restaurant that accommodates 200 guests.
The museum's design incorporates industrial materials to reflect the township's architecture, with twelve metal containers serving as independent gallery spaces.
