Wupperthal Mission Station
Cederberg, ZAplace
About
The two missionaries settled among the seven Khoikhoi families in the valley and concentrated on their spiritual upliftment as well as to encourage farming. The population swelled shortly after slavery was abolished in 1838 and many freed slaves arrived from nearby farms. At Christmas time there is a festival of carol singing at the mission and the mountains echo to the voices of the people of Wuppertal. A place rich in culture, history and hospitality.
