Notes

Settlement in the Wynberg area began in 1657 by the free burghers, and for more than a century most of them travelled into Cape Town to attended religious services. As a result of the distances involved, as well as the poor state of local roads, on 7 June 1829 it was resolved to establish a separate congregation in the village of Wynberg. The foundation stone was laid on 24 March 1831 by Sir John Truter. The original building was a hall 24m long and 8m wide. The little bell towers and side rooms were added in 1837 and in 1842 two additional wings were built. The Dutch Reformed Church, Wynberg, was declared a National Monument under old NMC legislation on 22 October 1965.
