TULBAGH

Overlooked by the Witsenberg, Winterhoek and Saronsberg mountains, the area has an excellent climate for fruit growing. In 1969, an earthquake destroyed large parts of the town, and 32 buildings in Church Street have been restored, to form the largest concentration of national monuments in the country.

OUDE KERK VOLKSMUSEUM A complex of four buildings featuring items from Tulbagh's past. 

Old Church Museum, Church Street. One of the oldest church buildings in South Africa, beautifully restored.
De Oude Drostdy (national monument), Van der Stel Street. A beautiful example of Louis Thibault's work, housing a fine collection of early Cape furniture and utensils.
Monbijou (national monument), Church Street. Another example of Thibault's work, designed in 1815.
Victorian House, Van der Stel Street. Dates back to 1892, decorated with furniture of that period.
