Sol Plaatje Museum & Library
|
The Sol Plaatje Museum and Library is the house where Solomon T. Plaatje lived during his last years at 32 Angel Street which was in the former Malay Camp. It was here that Plaatje wrote his novel Mhudi.
The Sol Plaatje Educational Trust was set up in 1991 to serve as a custodian for this and other legacy projects. In 1992, 32 Angel Street was declared a National Monument and is also a Provincial Heritage Site. Plaatje's grave in West End Cemetery, Kimberley, is also a provincial heritage site. |
