1903. In later days after the deterioration of

The
‘Schutztruppen’ buildings later functioned
as a hotel and shop for the surrounding farmers.
A big variety of these ruins can be viewed on
the Lamprecht’s farm on the edge of the
Fish River as well as 2 historic grave yards.
The area is also a birders paradise since over
300 species of birds can be spotted there at certain
times. |
