Stellenbosch Museum

The Stellenbosch Museum consists of four period houses, each showcasing different architectural styles and domestic settings from various historical periods of the region.

Established in March 1962, the museum includes the Schreuderhuis from 1709, which remained standing after the first major fire that affected Stellenbosch.

The museum exhibits feature detailed representations of different social classes through furnished rooms, decorative arts, and household items from the 18th and 19th centuries.

Located at 18 Ryneveld Street, the museum opens Monday through Saturday from 9:00 to 17:00, with conference facilities available for groups up to 20 people.

The VOC Kruithuis, part of the museum complex, stands as the only remaining Dutch East India Company gunpowder storage facility in South Africa.
