Kramat Sheikh Noorul Mubeen

d. 1716

Placeholder for Kramat Sheikh Noorul Mubeen Tomb

The saint buried there is Sheikh Noorul Mubeen, who was apparently banished to the Cape in 1716 and incarcerated on Robben Island. His grave is reached by ascending the 99 steps leading to it from Victoria Road up the mountain slope.
