Museum tracing the history of the Afrikaans language, invented by slaves.

As its name suggests, this museum traces the history of the Afrikaans language, invented by slaves and structured by teachers and missionaries. One fine day in August 1875, Arnoldus Pannevis gathered some friends here, in the house of the Huguenot Gidéon Malherbe, to found the "Genootskap van Regte Afrikaners", the "Institute of True Afrikaners". In 1876, they published Die Patriot, the first newspaper in Afrikaans. Those interested will go to the mission of Genadendal.
