Oom Samie se Winkel

Oom Samie se Winkel is a general store with museum elements in Stellenbosch, housed in a Victorian building on Dorp Street. Inside you find a wide range of traditional South African products, vintage objects, local handcrafted goods, fresh produce, and regional specialties displayed throughout the space.

The shop was founded in 1904 and stands as one of the oldest continuously operating trading businesses in the Cape region. The store has evolved over more than a century while keeping its role as a trading post.

The shop keeps alive traditional trading customs and sells handcrafted goods from local makers, fresh produce, South African spices, teas, and regional specialties. When you walk through it, you see how people still shop for everyday items the way families did many years ago.

The shop is open daily and you can walk around freely to look at the goods without paying any entrance fee. It is a compact space, so you can explore it quickly, making it easy to visit when passing by on Dorp Street.

The shop includes a wine section where visitors can purchase South African wines and arrange to send them anywhere in the world. This blends the shopping experience with local wine culture in a way you would not expect to find in a general store.
