Located just outside Worcester in the beautiful Breede River Valley, the Kleinplasie Living Open-air Museum invites visitors to step into the past and experience a way of life that was centuries ago by the early pioneer farmers of the Cape. Each building in this picturesque and tranquil village setting represents an activity or industry relating to agriculture and family life as experienced on Western Cape farms during the time period between 1690 and 1900. What makes Kleinplasie unique is that these industries and activities are carried out on a daily basis (except Sundays), as they would have been done in the past, making it a fascinating interactive experience for visitors.
