Places to visit in Riebeek Kasteel
* De Oude Kerk Museum
* Hermon Street
De Oude Kerk opened its doors in 1855, but due to lack of money, a pastor didn’t arrive in Riebeek Kasteel until 1881. The building is now a museum that pays tribute to the Voortrekkers who settled in this valley and you’ll find plenty of wagons, farming implements, school desks, hymn books and other antique knickknacks.
Look out for the horse-drawn hearse with a coffin (on the left as you enter) that dates back to 1880. Due to the shortage of wood during the flu epidemic of 1918, bodies were wrapped in a sheet before being placed in the coffin and after the funeral the coffin was re-used, time and time again. De Oude Kerk is also rumoured to be haunted and many visitors have reported feeling ghostly cold spots, especially by the old pram displayed in the museum.

Riebeek Kasteel Reviews
Shops, galleries and eateries
Nice restaurants!
Near to Cape Town
Lovely town for eating good food, meeting friendly people, relaxing and just chilling out
The oldest hotel in South Africa. Delicious meal at Pinata.
Beautiful village with interesting shops and places to eat
Nice artistic vibe.
the variety, the quality and quantity of restaurants, the views
Cafe Felix is lovely. We had dinner there. Wonderful atmosphere. The quiet of the town. At night you can "hear" the silence. Beautiful place.
The wonderful location, the views, the mountains and the local people. We met a fantastic artist call Piet Blom, and his wife Hester! His paintings are all about trees, and the complexity in his art is incredible!! We bumped into Mornè du Plessis, what a great man! And Roberto the Italian owner of Angies is a great host and looking after every patron personally.
For me the people, the unique town setup and the wine and nature and the simplicity of all makes it a great destination.
Beans about coffee!!
