The High Court, Lobatse, Botswana

Displayed:   times.

Located just off the main road from Gaborone as you enter Lobatse, is the High Court of Botswana. This has been situated in Lobatse since 1957 when the original High Court, now the Court of Appeal and located behind the new High Court premises, was opened by the then Chief Justice, the Honourable Sir Herbert Charles Rahe Cox. It was then called the High Court of the Bechuanaland Protectorate. Although the administration of Bechuanaland was conducted from Mafikeng, in South Africa, it was deemed necessary for the High Court to be located within the country.

The new High Court of Botswana is a modern building, which was officially opened by the Chief Justice in 1996. More info on: www.botswana-tourism.gov.bw
