St George's Cathedral, at Queen Victoria and Wale streets, is interesting as much for its history as for its Herbert Baker Victorian Gothic design; on September 7, 1986, Desmond Tutu hammered on its doors , symbolically demanding to be enthroned as South Africa's first black archbishop.

Three years later, he heralded the last days of apartheid by leading thirty thousand people from the Cathedral to the City Hall, where he coined his now famous slogan for the new order:

"We are the rainbow people !",

he told the crowd,

"We are the new people of South Africa !"
