Rand Club Building, Private members club in central Johannesburg, South Africa
The five-story Edwardian neo-baroque building features a rusticated ground floor, porticoes, and Doric pillars at the intersection of Commissioner and Loveday Streets.
Founded in October 1887, the current third clubhouse was constructed in 1904 with a metallic structure fabricated in the United Kingdom during the gold rush period.
The Buckland Library within the building maintains over 10,000 volumes focused on African history and Johannesburg biographies dating back to the 19th century.
The building includes conference rooms, a private theater, multiple libraries, a ballroom, and a 31-meter bar that ranks as the longest in Africa.
The club building served twice as an official residence for British royal family members during their visits to South Africa in the 1920s and 1930s.
