Description


The Church was designed and build by Carl Otto Hager during 1880-1882 according to Neo-Gothic Style. The church has interesting towers, window patterns and plastered panels, which are repeated on the impressive pulpit. A monument to commemorate The Great Trek centenary in 1938 also stands on the terrain. The Church was declared a National Monument in 1978. Another bit of history from the Swartland. Have a great day - thanks for all the comments! Clive

A very impressive building Clive and the stark white contrasted rather harshly with the stonework. Great capture.
