Genadendal - Stopped Us In Our Tracks!

We took the back roads from Cape Town to Franschhoek, Theewaterskloof Dam, Genadendal and Greyton.
Wow! Genadendal, what a place! This video will give you insight into the important history and significance of this special little town.

I used to attend high school there. End of month when we from the school hostel we're allowed home id remain in genadendal. It's how I met Dr.Bali walking past the museum when he greeted me first. I was 14 years old. He was like a father figure to me. I'll never forget him. He is an amazing man.

Thanks for your lovely message, it is so interesting to hear about your childhood memories of Genadendal. Our visit to Genadendal was a wonderful experience, but meeting and talking to Dr Bali was the for sure the highlight of the visit. His stories are amazing and it is very clear that he has had a huge impact in Genadendal and the community... All the best, Werner 🙂
