Brief History

The first church that had been built due to a donation by Johann Keetman in 1866. The Aub River washed it away in 1890. The Nama Kaptein Tseib who settled there with its followers, donated the land for the second church. Its construction by the community was supervised by Rev. Tobias Fenchel. Consecration in 1895. It was used by the black community until 1961 (the Europeans built their own church in 1930), when they were expelled from the "white" quarter. Since 1978 it is used as a museum.
