The Moruleng Cultural Precinct is a 21st century museum space that celebrates the cultural history of the Bakgatla-Ba-Kgafela. It is part of a wider plan by Kgosi Nyalala Pilane to make Moruleng the first post apartheid city in South Africa. The cultural centre is hoped to benefit not only his morafe but the rest of South Africa. It is unlike any exhibition centre that community owned museums have developed so far. It is a highly conceptual and an immersive space that stimulates the creative and critical thinking of visitors.
Partly funded by the Lottery Board through a R7 million donation, it has offerings that include the museum, the oldest Bakgatla church, the 150 year old Dutch Reformed Church, a new building of the United Reformed Church, the amphitheatre, a coffee shop, a craft shop, conference facility, the gallery and landscaping that is reminiscent of the Bakgatla settlement in the 1900. The landscaping includes a hut displaying technique that the morafe used to erect shelters.
