A Historical Landmark

Rozenhof was built in 1937, designed by Stellenbosch town clerk Walther Blersch (1888–1971). It blends German Biedermeier architecture with Art Deco elements, drawing inspiration from the military hospital in Tübingen, Germany. The site originally housed Stellenbosch’s first jail, part of the courthouse. The jail was demolished in 1936 to make way for a women’s dormitory. In 1997, the building was converted into eleven private residential units, with a balcony added to the front façade.
