Krugersdorp Attractions

Krugersdorp (pop. 140,000), 15km/9mi northwest of Johannesburg, takes its name from Paul Kruger, President of the Transvaal Republic. The town was founded on the site of a farm in 1887 after the discovery of gold in the area. It became the administrative of the West Rand goldfields and in consequence has a number of imposing public buildings.

The Paardekraal Memorial outside the town marks the spot where the Boers assembled in 1880 to protest against the British annexation of the Transvaal.
