The Genadendal Mission Museum strives towards being a dynamic institution, which focuses on the preservation of the Genadendal heritage. This heritage is understood to encompass the culture and history of the inhabitants, mainly of mission stations, and their relationship with the people in South Africa and the world.

This museum rates for me one of the best historical experiences of my life! I learned so much about my own country’s history! And it was really special to have a guide explain the history of the Moravian church. It makes a museum visit special to have someone to tell the story behind the story. Well done guys! Really special!

This former government building, an architectural treasure in itself, is now a museum containing some impressive artifacts. Particularly noteworthy is a collection of late 18th and early 19th century Cape furniture.

Open air type museum with numerous buildings displaying bygone lifestyles and crafts. Including a magistrates home with courthouse. Lovely couple of hours wander.
