Clanwilliam Museum
Clanwilliam Museum Review
The display is old-fashioned and not particularly well curated at the Clanwilliam Museumbut still gives a sense of the remarkable Dr. Christiaan Louis Leipoldt. You'll also get a sense of early settler life in the mountains. The wagons, carts, and rudimentary household equipment speak of much harder times when pioneers headed into the high country wanting to farm or escape colonial control in the cities.
