About Fort Nottingham Museum
This fascinating museum is hidden inside an old fort, here you can see interesting exhibits of the early settlers that came to the Natal Midlands around 1856.
Learn more about the fort, who built it, the purpose of it and take a guided tour around the fort where you will find out some fascinating facts. The fort was built so that soldiers could protect the settlers from the bushman and from the dan raiding cattle.
There are also displays of artifacts from the San bushman and more information about their way of life and their history in the Midlands. The Fort Nottingham Museum is brimming with the little towns history and is worth a visit while here.
