Visitor resource centres
We have visitor's centres across Cape Town with more resources, brochures and maps for those interested in discovering our city.
Mamre Visitor's Centre
Mamre is situated about an hour’s drive outside Cape Town. It was established in 1807 as one of the Moravian Mission settlements at the Cape. Prior to the establishment of the mission settlement, Mamre was a VOC outpost known as Groenekloof. Places of interest in Mamre include the Mamre School, the Long House (a stone house formerly used as a barracks by the Dutch East India Company), the Water Mill, the Old Shop and the Old Mamre Moravian Church.
Langa Visitor's Centre
You can find the visitor's centre situated in the Old Post Office, opposite the Gugu S’Theba Cultural Centre in Washington Street, Langa. Langa is the oldest formally laid out (designed) township and is one of three suburbs (also Pinelands and Maitland Garden Village) built in Cape Town as part of the Gardens City initiatives.
Prestwich Memorial
The Memorial is dedicated to the memory of Cape Town’s 18th century slaves and marginalized people, who died and were buried in the informal cemetery between Somerset Road and the historical shoreline. The Memorial is situated on the site of the 18th century Dutch Reformed Church Cemetery. See the
Prestwich Memorial brochure.
Company’s Garden Visitor's Centre
Originally the home of the Manager of the Company’s Garden, the Visitor's Centre now houses the offices of the Cape Town Heritage Trust. Interpretation pamphlets and brochures are for sale. Find out more about
