During the restoration of the inner courtyard, the team discovered the foundations of the early 18th century bakery and this pool. Both have since been researched and rebuilt from plans and paintings. It is said that the wife of his Excellency the governor would wade in this pool in full dress, provided that the eyes of the soldiers were kept occupied elsewhere!

    Description: Castle Cape Town arch and old tram horse-drawn The Castle of Good Hope is the oldest surviving building in South Africa. It is said that building started in 1666. It took years to complete and a number of alterations have been made over the centuries. This castle replaced a smaller clay and timber fort built by Jan van Riebeeck in 1652. It used to be the headquarters in the Cape of Good Hope for the Dutch East Indian Company, better known as the VOC (Verenigde Oos-Indische Compagnie). Today the castle is the regional headquarters of the South African Army in the Western Cape and it is home to the famous William Fehr Collection of historic artworks and the Castle Military Museum. Tours are conducted for tourists, or one can wander around inside the walls. One can also hop onto a horse-powered trip through Cape Town, starting here at the museum. On the left is an old horse-drawn tram that has been restored. The first horse-drawn tram service in Cape Town is said to have started in 1862,

    Description: Het Posthuys (the Dutch for The Post Office) has reportedly been built in 1673 already. It was built by the Dutch East Indian Company, better known as the VOC (Verenigde Oos-Indische Compagnie) to protect the new trading post, called the Cape of Good Hope, from an attack. Het Posthuys is situated in present-day St James, so it would have been the main defence for an attack from False Bay. The Castle of Good Hope would have been the defence position for an attack from Table Bay. Het Posthuys houses a museum at present.

    Title: One of the Lydenburg heads
    Path: african.pictures / Shuter & Shooter Publishers / Izak de Vries
    Description: A Lydenburg head on display at the Iziko Museum in Cape Town. Carbon dating on these figures indicates that they date from the year 500 in the Common Era. We know very little about these masks that were excavated near the town of Lydenburg. Social Scientists and archaeologists believe that they may have been used in initiation rituals.

    Title: Centrepiece of Castle Pool
    Path: african.pictures / The Media Bank / Izak de Vries
    Description: This fish supposedly represents a dolphin. Alas. It is the centrepiece for the swimming pool used by the governor and his family in the days of the Dutch East Indian Company. The Castle of the Cape of Good Hope has been restored during the nineties. During the restoration of the inner courtyard, the team discovered the foundations of the early 18th century bakery and this pool. Both have since been researched and rebuilt from plans and paintings. This fish too has been reconstructed from drawings. (Visitors to Cape Town should look out for the fish at the Parliament building. There the fish hold up the lights to entrance of parliament.)

    Description: This is the entry to the quarters of the former Governors of Cape Town. Go in through the doors and up the stairs, and you will come across one of the longest tables you'll ever see. Nobody wants to be on washing up duty for that dining room! Today these quarters are home to the famous William Fehr Collection of historic artworks. It tells the story of transport in the Cape in vivid images. In the days before cameras, artists used to do the work of present-day stock photographers: They captured history.
