Broederstroom

Broederstroom is a village situated beside the R512 road on the Daspoortrand (former Pretoria district) in the Witwatersrand, the southern foothills of the Magaliesberg in North West Province, South Africa.

[1] Various small to medium-sized businesses, overnight facilities, farm houses and informal settlements are located beside or just off the R512 on the western bank of the Crocodile River.

Well-known Afrikaans writer Sangiro was born in Broederstroom in 1894, and starting 1924, Afrikaner historian and language activist Gustav Preller visited the area, and eventually established him at nearby Pelindaba.

Pelindaba is the southern section of former Welgegund farm, acquired from the state by Swart Martiens Pretorius before the end of the 19th century.

[3] The western section of Pelindaba, accessed via gate 3, is a conserved area which includes Preller's House, a National Monument since 1973.

Located in the Gauteng-Tshwane complex, the climate is perfect for highveld fauna and the native animals found in this park.
