Fun Western Cape Fact: While Stellenbosch certainly had many things going for it from the very beginning, it wasn’t all smooth sailing. In 1710, a fire broke out that ended up razing virtually the entire settlement. Similar fires in 1803 and 1875 finally led to a change in roofing material away from thatch, greatly increasing the resilience of the town’s buildings. Despite the conflagrations that have ravaged it in the past, Stellenbosch is still filled with some serious history. Here, one can find the oldest house contained within a town or city in all of South Africa, the oldest inn in the form of the Oude Werf, and De Akker, its second oldest pub.
