The museum, situated in Van Riebeeck Street, is about showcasing the cultural history of the region and its immediate surrounds. It explores the life, implements, people and natural treasures of Calitzdorp and the Klein Karoo, extending back generations. The exhibit is varied and comprehensive, and ranges from old photographs to local artefacts. The Calitzdorp Museum is run by volunteers who share a love for the local heritage and natural abundance, and want others to enjoy this passion. It is open from Monday to Saturday from 10:00 to 13:00 and most weekdays for some hours in the afternoon. HOW TO GET THERE? Drive or walk out of the gate and turn right into Queen Street. Go to the top of Queen Street and follow the dogleg turn. The museum will be in front of you on the corner of van Riebeeck and Queen Streets.
