This historic home is now a museum with an overnight rate. The former house and surrounding gardens of former South African president and anti-apartheid revolutionary Nelson Mandela is now accepting reservations after being transformed into an inn. — New York Post
Located in the suburb of Houghton, Johannesburg, Sanctuary Mandela, not only offers lodging but also features curated exhibits that pay tribute to the human rights activist and a restaurant with menu items inspired by Mandela’s favorite meals.
The boutique hotel includes nine rooms and retreat spaces and can host up to 18 guests at a time. The former residence is the first home Mandela lived in following his 27 years of imprisonment. Between 1992 and 1998, he resided in the building where a range of famous guests was hosted and later used as the headquarters for the Nelson Mandela Foundation.

I have a friend who is annoyed by the term "late-stage capitalism." He would not understand why I sent him this link.
Well, these historic structures need to raise money somehow…
