Huguenot Memorial Building

In 1980 it was described in the Government Gazette as[1] This predominantly Edwardian building was erected by the Synod of the Dutch Reformed Church to commemorate the arrival of the French Huguenots (1688).

The foundation stone was laid on 24 August 1899 and the building was officially opened on 15 October 1903.

The Huguenot Memorial Society had to go to the Supreme Court in order to secure the rights to the disused cemetery where they intended to erect the building.

[2] The building houses the Cape Town office of the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA).
