The museum consists of more then 640 laundry irons, mostly rare and some only existing examples left. Also more then 50 rare washing machines and mangles dated back from the 1800, some are claimed to be of the only remaining in the world.

Make sure you see the video prior to browsing through this wonderful museum. Spent a good hour and a half here and we were amazed at the thoughtfullness that has gone into putting this collection together. Both my hubby and my kids (teenagers) found this to be a hidden gem! If you're in the area you should give it a try, you wont be disappointed!

This is very easy to miss or give a miss. But don't!!! It is worth spending a happy one to two hours here. A huge collection of memorabilia from Oudtshoorn. Also a history of the area plus it includes the original old synagogue relocated into a wing of this museum. The old museum building itself is worth the visit. Definitely worth a visit.
