The Lucas Meijer House Museum by Steve Coetzee

I have visited your beautiful museum about 20 years ago. I grew up in Vryheid in the 1960's and attended Nuwe Republiek Laerskool. Could you please help me with some information. I was a small boy on the farm Welgevonden and Weltevrede near Lenjane. My grandparents (who are burried in Vryheid cemetary) build that original house, but i never had the chance to ask them who the buiders were. I want to know who the people were that had the knowledge to cut the "Blou ysterklip" and build those beautiful cut and stacked stone cattle kraals. I dout if it was the Zuloes, because they never used that method pf building. Maybe Basoetoes?? Who cut the sandstone of the NG church? And the police station? I will really appreciate if you could enlighten me. Kind regards Steve Coetzee.

I was there about 15 years ago and was disappointed at the state
