Cecil John Rhodes Cottage

Cecil John Rhodes bought the cottage in 1899. He died there on 26 March 1902. After Rhodes’s death it was administered by the Rhodes Trustees. In 1932 it was handed over to the Northern Rhodesian government. The Cape Town City Council took it over in 1937. The museum is run by the Muizenberg Historical Conservation Society. During summer it is open from 10h00 till16h00. Reduced opening hours during winter. Well worth a visit for those interested in Rhodes and Cape history. Also a fine indigenous mountainside garden.

SAPS Museum

During the mid-eighties plans were under way to establish a police museum in Muizenberg, Cape Town. Permission was granted that the old Muizenberg Police Station and the adjoining old magistrate’s court could be used to accommodate the museum. Captain J Schreuder was appointed to begin collecting historical articles and to equip the museum full time. These activities were performed with the full cooperation of the curator of the Police Museum in Pretoria, under whose command the new museum would fall.

The Muizenberg museum was officially opened in June 1990 and currently has a staff of three. Inspector Johannes Pietersen is the curator.
