George has many
historical landmarks to be visited. Like The Slave
Tree, an ancient English Oak planted by Landdrost van Kervel. Known as the
Slave Tree because of the very large chain and lock embedded in the trunk,
it has been declared a national monument. And the King Edward VII Library
building is said to be the best example of Edwardian architecture in
George. The First Class School for girls was started
by Miss Christina Petronella van Niekerk, a "New Age" young lady
with visions for the future which were very different to those ideas held
by the conservative population of George. George has much to offer the visitor with its city-like infrastructure but not forgetting its small town roots. |
