Arbeidsgenot

From the turn of century to 1950 this charming museum was the home of the composer of South Africa’s first national anthem.

Despite the town being very busy preparing for the KKNK music festival, we had the most wonderful tour by an informed, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable guide. The house is a great window into how life was like and some of the driving forces behind the importance of Afrikaans becomming an official language in South Africa. We can all learn from the struggles of people who have gone before us in wanting their heritage and culture to be recognised. CJ Lagenhoven has so many stories to tell beyond those he wrote down.

Old Timber Shed

Reviewed By lens994 - Cape Town, South Africa

Pity there is encroachment on the site by a noisy Restaurant which should not be there - would that the authorities do something about it.
