Statement of Significance

The historic Matjiesfontein Village was built between 1895 and 1907 by Mr J. Logan. It was developed as a spa and as such it became the meeting place of historical figures like Cecil Rhodes and Olive Schreiner. During the Anglo-Boer War it served as the headquarters of the supreme command of the British forces in the Cape. _x000D_
The buildings of this unspoilt Victorian village form a unique whole and mirror the architecture of their era.
