Swellendam lies at the foot of the Langeberg Mountains along the Koornlands River. Known for its Cape Dutch architecture, historic Drostdy, and oak-lined streets, the town reflects its origins as an early administrative and farming centre of the Cape Colony. The old town layout takes the form of an irregular river-ribbon town and is defined by both the path of the Koornlands River and the route of the old Cape wagon route. Today, Swellendam is bypassed by the N2 but still serves as a gateway to the Overberg’s farms, nature reserves, and mountain landscapes.

Map Design and Paper

The map is an original creation by our design studio at Africa Map Art. Data for this map has been compiled from various up-to-date sources including from the OpenStreetMap contributors. The map is available in the following two paper options and canvas: a high quality 210gsm heavyweight coated paper with a matte finish, which achieves excellent colour and resolution and is perfect for framing;  a 260gsm photo paper with a smooth satin finish;  and a 350gsm strengthened canvas. All of the options are shipped in a cardboard roll for protection. The canvas is unstretched and unframed.

We welcome personalisation and customisation requests, such as highlighting of specific buildings or features, adjusting the colour scheme, or the addition of text and images.  Please contact us for a quote.

History

Founded in 1745, Swellendam is the third-oldest colonial settlement in the Cape and served as an early administrative centre for the vast eastern districts of the colony. In 1795, local burghers briefly established the short-lived Republic of Swellendam, reflecting frontier tensions during the final years of Dutch rule at the Cape. The town later developed as a farming and trade hub, leaving a legacy of Cape Dutch architecture and historic civic buildings that still shape its character today.

If your child loves FGTEEV, this book is a MUST HAVE!
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
Our 8 yr old has been an FGTeeV fan since he was 3! And as a mother of boys that love YouTube, I can say that this channel/family is just all around awesome. I love how family orientated they are, you can feel the love & respect they have for each other. They’re not as annoying for us parents as some of the other channels (if you know, you know!) So when our son wants a book, we buy it! He has the whole collection now! He rereads them all the time. We also have the activity book on preorder. The books are all set up in comic style. So when our son was learning how to read, this made it entertaining for him & easy to digest. There’s a lot of lingo that is based off of FGTeeV’s YouTube channel. I can’t tell you what they’re about, but our son is constantly entertained & proud to show us what is going on in the books. The graphics are a great representation of the family, who are the main characters on YouTube channel & the book… including the dog Oreo! I wish more YouTubers focused on books like this for children. It’s great way to get them off the iPad & get their brains & imagination running!
