Unveiling of 1860 Indentured Workers Monument delayed
November 09, 2025
|Sunday Tribune
A MONUMENT to acknowledge Indian Indentured labourers will not be ready next Sunday, when the 165-year anniversary is commemorated.
THE 1860 Indentured Workers Monument, situated along Durban's uShaka Beach promenade, is taking shape.
(I LEON LESTRADE Independent Newspapers)
This is due to the bronze armature required for the sculpture set to be erected on Durban’s uShaka Beach promenade causing the delay.
November 16 marks 165 years since the first indentured Indian workers arrived in KwaZulu-Natal aboard the SS Truro in 1960.
Contractor and artist Brendon Edwards explained that work was under way to complete as much as possible before the planned unveiling day.
Edwards said most of the work has been done offsite and would be installed during the week.
On Friday, officials from eThekwini Municipality and the Department of Arts and Culture were on the site for a progress report after the project had stalled.
