Burgher House

Burgher House

Braak
Just north-west of the Kruithuis stands the Burgher House, with its delicate pilastered gable, its fine old walls and its little old fashioned garden. It was built in 1797 by Antonie Fick, who also built several other houses in Stellenbosch.
It now serves as the headquarters of Historical Homes of South Africa Limited and also houses an excellent collection of old furniture, glassware and ceramics.
