Saulspoort (also known as Moruleng)[2] is a village in South Africa, at the northern foot of the Pilanesberg, about 65 km north of Rustenburg.

It was named after a former baKgatla chief, Tsheole, called Saul by the early settlers.

[3] It was established when Henri Gonin, a Swiss missionary with the Dutch Reformed Church preaching to the baKgatla tribe, moved to Saulspoort farm, which was owned by the later president Paul Kruger; Kruger eventually sold the farm to Gonin in 1869.

[4] In 1895 the baKgatla purchased most of Saulspoort from Gonin.
