The Satyagraha House is a museum retracing Gandhi’s experiences in South Africa and particularly those that he shared here with his friend Kallenbach. A peaceful and meditative atmosphere channelling Gandhi’s life within these walls inhabits the property.

Renovations overseen by a team comprising a historian, a curator, an architect, two interior designers, and their respective teams, have restored the original spirit of the house, bringing back an important page in the history of both South Africa and Mohandas Gandhi. The Satyagraha House is now a registered part of the country’s historical heritage and presents an innovative accommodation concept linking guesthouse to museum. In all, seven rooms are spread out between the original house, called the Kraal in reference to its architecture resembling a traditional African farm, the cottage added a few years later, and the modern wing built in 2010.
